Why non-profit?

CarShare Vermont is a 501(c)3 nonprofit organization. Rather than focusing on our bottom line alone, we strive to provide an accessible and affordable service that reduces overall car use and improves mobility for people of all income levels.

If turning a profit was our primary goal, we might be forced to encourage people to drive our cars more than their own, or our pricing would reflect a service that only a few could afford.

Finally, we believe that financial self-sufficiency is simply a more sustainable goal — this means we intend to stick around, and put every dollar we earn back into CarShare Vermont and the community we love.
