About Us
Rides for Refugees is an all-volunteer 501c3 charitable nonprofit that helps low-income, legal refugees in the U.S. get cars so they can get to work and become self-reliant. We welcome vehicle donations (including cars, trucks, SUVs, RVs, fleet and commercial vehicles), as well as monetary donations and corporate sponsorships. Contact us at Hello@RidesforRefugees.org or 571-643-6020 to arrange a vehicle donation pickup or corporate sponsorship, and visit www.ridesforrefugees.org to learn more.

View Personal BioJacqui OlkinI founded Rides for Refugees to help low-income refugees overcome transportation hurdles so they can get to work and become self-reliant. Rides for Refugees is an all-volunteer 501c3 charitable not-for-profit. We welcome formal and informal partnerships with local businesses and organizations who are committed to healthy communities and opportunity for all.
In addition to my volunteer leadership of Rides for Refugees, I work as a web consultant, specializing in website assessments and redesign planning, usability, user research, and content strategy. If your website isn't delivering for your organization or engaging your target customers, I'm the one to call.
I grew up in Reston and still live here, along with many members of my family. You might see me running on the trails or in local races.Tell a Friend
