Transform Lives of Our Suffering Vets Using Your Old Car
Did you know that your run-down commuter car can be used as a powerful tool to transform the lives of the struggling veterans in your city? Simply hand it over to us at Veteran Car Donations through our San Bernardino, California vehicle donation program and you’ll put smiles on their faces — and yours, too!
How Your Donation Will Benefit Our Former Troops
Life after separation from the military is never easy. Many of our former servicemen and servicewomen find it hard to transition to civilian life. They are burdened with service-connected disabilities, injuries, illnesses, and mental health disorders. They’re unable to find decent and stable jobs. Due to lack of support, they wallow in poverty, forcing some of them to live on the streets as homeless people.
That is why we at Veteran Car Donations are here. Together with our military and veteran nonprofit partners, we’re on a mission to provide our nation’s heroes with decent lives that they fully deserve.
When you participate in our San Bernardino, CA car donation program, we’ll put your vehicle up for auction. Once it is sold, we’ll distribute the proceeds to our charity partners. In turn, these IRS-certified 501(c)3 nonprofit organizations will use the money to provide needy veterans and their families in your city with a host of benefits, such as:
- Various forms of assistance for veterans confined in hospitals;
- Housing for those who are homeless;
- Employment opportunities for veterans and their spouses as well;
- Financial and other forms of aid for destitute, low-income, and homeless veterans;
- Therapeutic activities to help rehabilitate disabled veterans;
- Peer support for ailing veterans, their families, and caregivers;
- Nature-based psychotherapy, team building, and family dynamics development programs for veterans and their families; and
- Sponsorship of events that encourage companies and organizations to give back to the veteran community.
You’ll Also Benefit from Teaming Up with Us
We want to spoil you with benefits. When you look back, you’ll have nothing but the best feelings about taking part in our San Bernardino County car donations program.
Here are the perks you’ll get to enjoy in exchange for donating your unwanted car:
- Get a maximized tax deduction.
Veteran Car Donations is in partnership with IRS-certified 501(c)3 nonprofit organizations. Once your vehicle sells at auction, you are automatically entitled to receive the highest possible tax deduction.
- Towing is free and at your own convenience.
You don’t have to worry about how you’re going to bring your non-running vehicle to our warehouse. Just tell us where it is located and we’ll have a team pick it up — free of charge. You also have the benefit of picking a schedule for the towing of your vehicle at your own convenience. We pick up seven days a week, and you don’t even need to be around for it!
- Skip the hassles and costs of selling.
It’s not easy to find a buyer for a second-hand automobile, especially one that’s already damaged. Not only do you need to run ads and make negotiations, but you might also find yourself spending huge bucks to make your car sellable by having it repaired and refurbished.
- Save money.
Every car owner knows how financially burdensome it is to keep a vehicle. When you simply donate your clunker to us, you’ll save loads of money since you no longer have to pay for your vehicle’s repairs, maintenance, registration, and insurance.
