Newgate Education Center turns your vehicle donation into automotive training, jobs and bright futures for motivated adults who lack the resources and support to pay for

technical training, like these Twin Cities students (l to r) Luis Gomez, Tor Westegaard, Ma Vang, and

Anneka Solzbach pictured below.

Newgate Education Center is funded 100% by donated vehicles.

Students pay no tuition. The automotive repair work they do as they learn career skills generates enough income from subsequent vehicle sales to keep our school operating without grants or tax money.
