With over 600 cubic feet of storage, it replaces unreliable volunteer cars, letting them move more donations, reach more kids, and even transport big items like popcorn machines and refrigerators for community events. For volunteer Skyler McAlpine, who once relied on the closet during his own foster care days, this van is more than a vehicle — it’s a symbol of expanded impact, turning compassion into scalable action for vulnerable youth.
