Even much better, your donation will be of great help to the struggling veterans residing in Perris, California. We will use it to improve their living conditions.

 

About Perris, California

The cities of Perris, California and Paris, France may have little in common, but their names are pronounced the same. Perris was named for Fred T. Perris, the chief engineer of the California Southern Railroad, whose railways led to the area’s settlement in the 1880s.

Perris is in Riverside County, which along with San Bernardino County makes up a region called the Inland Empire. The city is a 70-mile drive east-southeast from Los Angeles, and about 80 miles north of San Diego.

Perris’ population as of 2019 was 79,291. The city has been growing steadily as more housing units are being built.

The poverty rate in Perris was 20.2%, higher than the countywide rate of 10.5%. The latest census also showed 1,546 veterans residing in the city.

Sadly, many of these veterans are among city residents who are living impoverished lives. They are burdened by their service-related disabilities and illnesses, including mental health issues. As a result, they are unable to find decent and stable jobs. Some have fallen deep into poverty and have become homeless, forced to beg for alms from passersby along city streets and sidewalks.

Your participation in our Perris, California car donations program will provide them opportunities to finally break free from poverty and live the decent and dignified life they’ve long dreamt of.

How Your Donation Will Help Needy Vets

Once we get hold of your donated vehicle, we’ll have it auctioned off, with the proceeds going to the leading veteran nonprofit organizations that we have partnered with. With your gift, these nonprofits will be able to deliver the following benefits to deserving veterans:

• Housing assistance for those who are homeless;
• Educational scholarships and tutoring support for those who seek to pursue higher education;
• Job training and mentoring for veterans 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; and
• 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.

A Quick Guide to Our Donation Process

At Veteran Car Donations, we work hard to provide our dear donors with the best giving experience. The last thing we want is to stress you out while you’re making a valuable contribution that will benefit the veteran community in your city. To prove our point, here’s a look at how our Perris, California donations process works:

1. Reach out to us.

You can hand over your clunker to us by calling 877-594-5822. We’ll ask a couple of basic questions about your car, such as its year, make, model, mileage, availability of its title, and its general working condition.

2. Schedule your free vehicle pickup.

After verifying the information you shared with us, we’ll call you back to set up a vehicle pickup schedule that’s convenient for you. We’ll send a licensed tow truck to where your vehicle is parked or stored to haul it away. Before our driver leaves, he’ll issue you a towing receipt. This releases you from all liabilities on your donated vehicle from that point onward.

3. Receive your tax-deductible receipt.

Once we get hold of your vehicle, we’ll promptly have it auctioned off. Within days following its sale, we’ll mail to you your 100% tax-deductible sales receipt. This document will allow you to claim your tax deduction when you file your itemized federal tax return in the next tax season.
