5 Reasons Why Car Donation Makes a Lot of Sense

No matter what you do, a time will come when your faithful vehicle will start to experience problems on the road, especially when it reaches a certain age. If it has already reached that age, you’re probably getting more and more annoyed each time you take it to the repair shop.

If you continue to experience issues with your car despite its numerous repairs, you have to face the fact that your ride has reached retirement age. The question is, what’s the best thing to do with it?

You can’t possibly resell such a rundown car at a decent price and you won’t get anything if you take it to the scrap yard. Fortunately, there’s one good option left: Donate it to a charity that will use it to support a worthy cause close to your heart.

Keep reading to learn why donating your old car is a lot better than trying to fix it for the nth time, selling, or junking it.

  1. Donating a car to charity is one of the easiest ways to help those in need.

You’ll make a difference in the lives of your less fortunate fellow Americans. Whether you’re donating your vehicle to an organization that caters to disadvantaged veterans, or one that aims to provide permanent shelters to the homeless, you can rest assured that your vehicle will leave a lasting impact.

  1. You’ll avoid the hassles and costs of getting your car fixed time and time again.

Donating your clunker surely makes more sense than wasting your money paying for its nonstop repairs. To solve your car problems, all you have to do is contact a charity that offers a vehicle donation program. You just sit back and wait for the charity to send a tow truck to pick up your vehicle.

  1. You’ll get tax incentives for your charitable deed.

If you donate to a nonprofit with an IRS-certified 501(c)(3) status, such a donation will entitle you to claim the highest possible tax deduction in the next tax season, thus significantly reducing your tax bill and saving money.

  1. Your auto donation will benefit the environment.

It’s not just you and the beneficiaries of your chosen charity who’ll benefit from your vehicle donation. It will also benefit Mother Nature since it will have one less source of pollutants. This will happen when the charity that receives your beater recycles it by selling its parts.

  1. You’ll help your community prosper.

Finally, by donating your vehicle to a local nonprofit, you get to help out your community, too! That’s because charities normally use the money from the sale of donated cars to fund their programs that benefit communities.

Turn over that vehicle to us and we’ll use it to improve the living conditions of those former service members in your area who are living miserable lives.

We’ll sell your donated vehicle through an auction and use the proceeds to support the life-improvement programs of our veteran-focused charity partners. These IRS-approved 501(c)(3) nonprofits cater to veterans who are homeless and impoverished, those who are unable to find jobs to support themselves and their families, and those who are suffering from disabilities and serious illnesses, including mental health conditions.

With your donation, our charity partners will be able to provide more needy veterans in your area with housing and financial assistance, employment and livelihood opportunities, family support, free quality health care and medical treatment, psychotherapy services, and many other services meant to uplift their lives.

In return, you’ll enjoy the privilege of receiving our free pickup and towing service wherever you are in the country. Your charitable contribution will also entitle you to claim the highest possible tax deduction in the next tax season.
