Driving the road to self-sufficiency for most Central Minnesotans requires a safe, reliable car. Low-income families needing transportation to employment or education may qualify for one of three TCC car loan programs: Family Loan, Transloan and
Linkloan.
If car ownership isn't a possibility for you, click on Transportation and view other transportation options available in the Crow Wing, Morrison and Todd County.
Loans can be used for purchase or repair. Loans for purchase are limited to $2000; loans for repair are capped at $700. Designed by the McKnight Foundation and administered by
TCC, these revolving loan pools are self-sustaining. When customers repay principal and interest, the fund is replenished for future borrowers.
