This hurts. 💔
Higher Power Garage was hit by thieves recently, and we are absolutely devastated. Several catalytic converters were stolen right off of our donated vehicles.
As a small non-profit, we operate on a tight budget to serve our neighbors, and we simply cannot afford this type of loss. On average, a single catalytic converter costs about $1,000 to replace—and having multiple stolen completely derails our ability to help people. These vehicles were generously donated by community members to help the community, and it breaks our hearts that someone would take away from those in need.
How you can help:
👥 Share this post: Help us get the word out to local scrap yards, businesses, and neighbors who might have seen something.
📞 Report tips: If you saw anything suspicious near the shop, or if you have any information at all, please contact the Joplin Police Department immediately or send us a direct message.
We are incredibly grateful for this community's ongoing support, and we appreciate any help in spreading the word so we can get back to focusing on our mission. Thank you. 🙏🚘
