Free Cars

* Re “Free Cars Drive Hopes of 3 Women,” Dec. 24.

Thank you for publishing this story about the donation of cars to the CalWORKS program participants. Local heroes, such as Supervisor Kathy Long and General Manager Phil Greenwood, from the Lincoln Mercury Subaru dealership of Oxnard, who identify a need and then work to address it are worthy of our admiration and praise.

By giving people the tools they need to lift themselves up, we have provided the means to ensure future success.
