Day after day, our activities help combat social exclusion, and we make a tangible contribution to local economic development that benefits all individuals in precarious situations as well as associations in the Haute-Garonne region.
Our Values
Solidarity: We are committed to a spirit of mutual aid and collaboration in support of those who may face mobility challenges that need to be overcome to return to work.
Sharing: We aim to encourage the exchange and sharing of expertise and experience necessary for everyone to develop their skills and become more self-reliant.
Inclusion: We seek to promote mobility for all, recognizing individuals and their needs, regardless of their economic and social circumstances.
Sustainability: We carry out our activities with a commitment to respecting the environment and future generations.
Our Services
Repairs: Our community garage offers repairs at very affordable hourly rates (see below).
Membership is non-transferable and becomes effective upon payment of the annual dues and acceptance of the bylaws. These dues, which are non-refundable, are valid for a full year.
Rental: Because our commitment to helping people in need get around couldn’t be limited to just repairing and maintaining their vehicles, we considered the best way to expand our service offerings.
By becoming a partner in the AGIL’ESS network, our Association is fully aligned with this shared mission of helping people who have been out of work return to employment
The vehicle is rented solely for the commute between home and work. The rental is limited to 3 months.
