Hi everyone,

Does anyone know of grants to support buying or repairing field vehicles? My colleagues in the Caribbean have old pick-up trucks that will die soon but they do not have funding to keep repairing them, or to buy new ones. 

Toyota used to have such grants but it is now only for projects near where their construction factories are. 

Any tips?

Thanks,

Yvan

Hi everyone, 

Trying to revive this conversation. Has anyone any leads on car manufacturers, foundations, NGOs, etc who support buying (or repairing) vehicles for conservation?

Thanks,

Yvan
