This August, Dim the Lights and Grab the Popcorn!
As Family Fun Month rolls around this August, many parents find themselves looking for ways to spend quality time with their little munchkins while they’re not yet busy with school activities.
One of the best ways to gather around and wind down after a busy week is to snuggle up together on the couch, grab a giant bowl of popcorn, and enjoy a family-friendly flick.
Top 3 Films That Are Sure to Win Over Your Family
If you can’t decide on a film that everyone in the family would want to watch, Veteran Car Donations is here to help you out. Whether you’re into classics, live-action, or comedy, we’ve rounded up three options that will surely win over every member of your family.
- The Sound of Music (1965)
Besides having depth, this must-watch family film also has a remarkable cast and the best original compositions in the history of film. Set in the 1930s, The Sound of Music tells the story of a woman named Maria (Julie Andrews) who leaves an Austrian convent to become a governess to the seven children of a naval officer widower (Christopher Plummer).
- The Princess Bride (1987)
If you’re in the mood for a movie packed with swordfights, giants, monsters, witty humor, and romance, you’d be delighted to watch the timeless film adaptation of a novel written by William Goldman called The Princess Bride. It’s a story about a young farm boy named Westley (Cary Elwes) who fights to save Buttercup (Robin Wright), his true love. Although many might think it’s a children’s movie, you’ll enjoy it as much as your little ones.
- Wonder (2017)
Wonder is a coming-of-age drama about kindness, acceptance, empathy, and friendship. It’s about a 10-year-old boy named Auggie (Jacob Tremblay) who was born with a rare medical facial deformity. Being homeschooled his entire life, Auggie enters a mainstream school, finds friends, and deals with bullies. As he navigates his emotions, Auggie will surely tug at your heartstrings and make you shed a tear or two.
Lend a Helping Hand to Our Struggling Veterans
As you settle in for some family togetherness in celebration of Family Fun Month this August, many of our veterans are away from their families and living miserable lives. They include the former service members residing in your community who are homeless, impoverished, and jobless, as well as those suffering from disabilities and serious illnesses, including mental disorders.
If you have a soft spot in your heart for those who risked their lives and sacrificed much in serving our nation, extend them a helping hand by donating any vehicle you no longer need to us at Veteran Car Donations. We’ll use your donation to improve the living conditions of those veterans.
Our team will place your donated auto up for auction and hand over the proceeds to our veteran-focused charity partners. These IRS-approved 501(c)(3) nonprofit organizations use the funding we give to provide deserving former U.S. service members with housing and financial assistance, employment and livelihood opportunities, family support, free quality health care and medical treatment, psychotherapy services, and other services meant to uplift their lives.
In exchange for your kindness, you’ll have the privilege of enjoying our fast and free towing service, which is available to our donors anywhere in the United States. You’ll also be entitled to receive the highest possible tax deduction in the next tax season.
However, the best reward you’ll get for your charitable contribution is the priceless joy of knowing that you’re doing something that can transform the lives of the hurting veterans in your community.
Since we accept nearly all vehicle types, feel free to donate your car, truck, van, RV, motorcycle, or any specialty vehicle regardless of their age and condition.
