Community Service Vehicle Donations: Driving Opportunity
Travelers is proud to partner with Recycled Rides®, a program managed by the National Auto Body Council (NABC) that brings together insurers, auto repair shops and community members to donate refurbished vehicles to those without reliable transportation. Since 2009, the company has donated 94 vehicles to individuals and organizations, including U.S. veterans and active military members, educational institutions and community organizations.
In 2025, Travelers donated 18 vehicles through the Recycled Rides program, benefiting veterans and families in need. In addition, Travelers donated three vehicles to the NABC F.R.E.E. (First Responder Emergency Extraction) Program, a training program for firefighters and first responders on extrication and safety.
