An impoverished homeless veteran begging for alms on the sidewalks is not an uncommon sight to see in Ontario, California as well as in many other cities in the United States.
Indeed, many of our over 20 million veterans are suffering from poverty due to a lack of jobs and support from the government. For some, the problem is exacerbated by service-related physical injuries and mental disorders.
This is deeply troubling and deplorable considering that these veterans are supposed to reap the fruits of their great sacrifice for the nation when they put their lives on the line to defend and protect our rights and our nation’s security during their overseas deployment.
Because of the sheer size of our veteran population, our government is simply unable to provide benefits for many of them. But this problem has got to be addressed despite the limited resources available for our former servicemen and women.
Why We Are Here and How Do We Serve Our Veterans
That’s why we at Veteran Car Donations are here in this city to encourage the public to help their fellow Americans who have done so much for our country.

Our Quick and Easy Car Donation Process

Step 1. Call us at 877-594-5822 or fill out our online donation form.
Share with us your personal contact information as well as a few details about the vehicle you’re donating like its year, make, model, mileage, VIN, and general comments about its running condition.
Step 2. Schedule your vehicle’s free and speedy pick-up.
Once you tell us when and where you want us to pick up your vehicle, we will coordinate with a licensed affiliate towing company in your area to do the job. You don’t pay for anything. During the pickup, we will give you a donation receipt that will release you from all liabilities on your car, thereby allowing you to cancel and stop paying for your car registration and insurance.

Within 30 days after we sell your car at auction, you will receive your 100 percent tax-deductible sale 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. e the steps:
