Helpful links and resources.
In addition to effectively handling car donations within the USA, it is our mission to spread love, kindness, and generosity to others. Here at Cars2Charities we
value exceptional customer service and full transparency with our donors. With this in mind we created some resources that we think will be both helpful and
valuable for our donors and charities.

When you donate a car to someone in need, you transfer the value of your vehicle to a place where it can do some good. And the best part of it is, you get to choose whether it becomes a comfort to the sick, additional resources for veterans, or another form of benefit to others.
There are many ways to contribute to persons or causes you care about. You can obviously give cash to support a scholarship fund or foundation. And when you donate a car you are doing much the same – the money that’s garnered from the sale of your vehicle goes to the greater good through any channel you choose.

You’ve decided it’s time to finally get rid of that vehicle sitting in your driveway and car donations have been on your mind lately. The thing is, you don’t know enough about the process, and you’re weary because you’ve heard a horror story or two. You know that donating a car to charity is a worthy option for finding your old car a new home, but you also want to find a trustworthy source to handle it. No one wants to fall prey to a scam artist.

When considering whether you want to sell your vehicle or donate it, one of the biggest factors is your car donation’s value, or tax deduction amount.
Don’t worry! This is a very common concern, and the following article will help explain what you can expect as a car donation value for your old car. In addition, there is a list of certain criterion and vehicles that might provide you with a higher car donation value.
