As our troops return to their homeland and transition to a civilian life, they are often filled with uncertainties. A greater challenge awaits them in their return: the challenge of finding a job and making sure their basic needs are met.
When they were still active-duty soldiers, our veterans endured sacrifices and courageously risked their lives to protect our rights and our nation’s security. They dreamt of living a better life, free from harm and danger, upon their return home at the end of their military career. To their utter dismay, this didn’t come true. Many of our veterans are now struggling to make ends meet even as they try to find decent jobs that can provide them an income sufficient enough to enable them to support themselves and their families.
But only a few manage to find jobs. Many of our veterans remain jobless and, worse, homeless, due to extreme poverty. They are overlooked and left behind.
But as the cliché goes, all hope is not lost. You can give that hope to our struggling veterans in your own city. By taking part in our Greenwood, Indiana car donations program, you can provide them much-needed assistance.
By giving away your old car or truck to us at Veteran Car Donations, you will enable the veterans in your city to receive employment and counseling services, medical and housing assistance, and many more.
Greenwood, Indiana: The ‘Smocktown’
As of 2016, the U.S. Census Bureau placed the population of Greenwood, Indiana at 53,828. The city is part of Indiana’s Johnson County, situated 11 miles south of Indianapolis, Indiana. Greenwood is part of the Indianapolis metropolitan area.
The early inhabitants of the city were the Native Americans. In 1813, the Delaware Indians’ village was wiped out by the Indiana and Kentucky militias. The community was originally known as “Smocktown” or “Smock’s Settlement,” but later embraced the name “Greenfield.” However, at that time, there was already another city named Greenfield in Hancock County. So, the government decided to change its name to Greenwood.
How to Donate a Car in Greenwood
In partnership with some of our nation’s most trusted non-profit organizations, Veteran Car Donations enables our veterans to receive assistance so that they can live their lives to the fullest by maximizing their skills and talents as a means to earn income. However, for us to continue our humanitarian mission, we need the help of generous people like you. Our organization has created a simple and fast Greenwood, Indiana car donations process so you can easily and conveniently take part in this noble undertaking. Here’s what you can do:
- First, contact us.
Simply call us at 877-594-5822 or fill out our online donation form to get started. We will need information about the general condition of your vehicle, its year, make and model as well as its current mileage. We will also need your contact information and your most preferred date and time for pick-up.
- Second, wait for the pick-up.
Our affiliate towing company from your area will pick up your vehicle at your convenience. You don’t have to be present during the process and the service is entirely free of charge. We will issue you a donation receipt that will release you from all liabilities on your car. With this receipt, you can now de-register your vehicle, dispose of your license plates properly, and cancel your insurance coverage.

We auction off your vehicle. Within 30 days after it has been sold, we will send you by mail your 100 percent tax-deductible sales receipt, indicating your donated vehicle’s final selling price. This will serve as the basis of your tax deduction claim when you file your itemized federal tax return in the next tax filing season.
