Making a car donation in East Hampton, Long Island to Veteran Car Donations is one of the best ways to show your appreciation to our veterans. We owe them a huge debt of gratitude for having fought for us to defend our freedoms and protect our nation’s security.
Now that they’ve come back home for good to live as civilians once again, they’re having problems reintegrating into society because of lack of jobs among other reasons. Your car donation would help alleviate these problems.
East Hampton is a town located at the eastern end of Long Island, New York that was founded in 1648 – making it one of the oldest settlements in the country. It’s known for its year-round charm because of its combination of atmospheric conditions resulting from the proximity of woods and ocean. Artists and writers who seek solitude often go to this place for inspiration for their work.
This scenic town has an estimated population of over 21,000 – including 1,336 veterans as of 2015. Ironically, amidst the beauty of East Hampton, our nation’s heroes suffer destitution. The harsh reality of deployment is that after they take off their uniforms, a huge part of their identity falls with them.
This can be psychologically devastating for the veterans especially when they begin to transition into civilian life. Without adequate support from the government and concerned organizations, those who came back home with severe physical injuries as a result of the combat missions they took part in, or those with post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) or other mental issues, easily fell into the trap of depression, substance abuse and, worst of all, suicide.
There’s something that we can do to put an end to this vicious cycle – and it involves your unwanted, battered, rusty, old car.
What We Can Do to Save the Veterans of East Hampton
A clunker that you haven’t used since God-knows-when that’s stuck in your garage won’t do you any good. You’d have to pay for its insurance, registration, repairs, maintenance and more repairs until your fat wallet thins out. If you’re not the type who won’t mind keeping a bottomless pit to throw all your money in, then donate that car instead to us at Veteran Car Donations through our East Hampton, Long Island car donation program.
We support certified 501(c)3 nonprofit organizations by operating vehicle donations to raise funds for their programs that are directed towards giving aid to former military servicemen and women who are homeless, jobless, mentally and/or physically incapacitated or even those who lack education. The proceeds of every vehicle donated and sold through our service will fund these programs. We assure all donors that their donations will be handled professionally and efficiently and will be used for their intended purpose of providing assistance to our veterans.
Among the services that our veterans will receive from the proceeds of your East Hampton, Long Island vehicle donation are:
- Building mortgage-free housing to end veteran homelessness
- Specially-adapted homes for those with severe service-connected disabilities
- Comprehensive mental health services for those with PTSD and traumatic brain injury
- Mentoring and job training programs to increase the unemployed veterans’ chances of getting hired
- Educational support for those who want to pursue higher education
