Peekskill, New York Car Donations

Make a Difference in the Lives of Our Neglected Heroes

Do you have an old car that has become more of a liability than an asset to you? Whether you have a clunker that’s been squatting in your garage for ages or a beater that’s been bleeding your pockets dry with its non-stop repairs and parts replacements, consider donating it to a charity that supports a cause close to your heart.

Choosing to hand it over to us at Veteran Car Donations through our Peekskill, New York car donations program is your best option.

Peekskill is a thriving city in Westchester county, southeastern New York, on the east bank of the Hudson River, 41 miles north of New York City. It got its name from Jan Peek, a Dutchman who established a trading post in 1654 at the point where a kil (Dutch word for “channel” or “creek”) joins the Hudson River.

The city had a population of 24,295 during the 2019 census. Among the locals were 1,105 veterans. Like other cities in America, Peekskill had its share of people living in poverty. They comprised 12.1% of the population, according to the U.S. Census Bureau.

We don’t know how many of the veterans in Peekskill live below the poverty line, but it can’t be denied that many of them are living miserable lives. These are our former servicemen and servicewomen who are suffering from service-connected disabilities and mental health issues, those who can’t find decent and stable jobs, and those who have become homeless due to lack of support and extreme poverty.

How You Can Help the Needy Veterans in Your City

You can easily extend a helping hand to the suffering veterans in your city. All you have to do is to hand over your unneeded vehicle to our Peekskill, New York car donations program. When you make such a donation, you’ll be helping improve the living conditions of the veterans together with their families in your local area.

We’ll have your vehicle auctioned off, with the proceeds going directly to our veteran-focused nonprofit partners. These IRS-approved 501(c)3 nonprofits will use the funding to sustain their delivery of life-enhancing benefits to deserving veterans. The benefits include:

  • Housing assistance for veterans who are homeless;
  • Educational scholarships and tutoring support for those who seek to pursue higher education;
  • Job training and mentoring for those who need to find stable and rewarding employment;
  • Financial and other forms of aid for destitute, low-income, and homeless veterans;
  • Various forms of assistance for those confined in hospitals;
  • Therapeutic activities to help rehabilitate disabled veterans;
  • Nature-based psychotherapy, team building, and family dynamics development programs for veterans and their families;
  • Peer support for ailing veterans, their families, and caregivers.

Aside from these services, our charity partners sponsor events aimed at encouraging companies and organizations to give back to the veteran community.
