How Your Support Helps

E-mail Print PDF
120x90application.jpgBy supporting the Institute for Affordable Transportation you are contributing to the efforts to bring mobility, economic structure, and  hope to the developing world.  The impact of the BUV is evident in communities across the world. Your monetary gift will help to produce and spread a vehicle that we envision to be the “car for humanity”.  Here are some examples of the impact of your gifts.

- $10 could buy fuel to run the BUV 200 miles

- $25 could buy an air filter and oil change

- $75 could provide service and parts for a year.

- $100 could keep a health worker on the road for a month.

- $250 could provide a set of tractor tires

- $500 could buy tools to provide maintenance.

- $5500 could buy a missionary or pastor a BUV

- $20,000 could equip a workshop to build BUVs

Every day, we hear stories about the impact that BUVs are having all over the world.  Anytime a child is transported safely to school, a fresh crop of fruit is delivered to a rural village, or a missionary’s work is supported through the use of a BUV – our belief in the power of affordable transportation is affirmed.  Read more about the transformational effects of BUVs in the poorest regions of the globe in our Human Impact section.
