Do you want to get rid of a clapped-out car that’s starting to compromise your safety on the road? Do you want to support a worthwhile cause while you’re at it? If you say “yes” to both questions, then you’d make a perfect vehicle donor for Veteran Car Donations’ Chesapeake, Virginia car donations program.
Chesapeake, Virginia – A Great Place to Live
In case you’re not aware, the city of Chesapeake has a lot to brag about. For one, the Federal Bureau of Investigation has consistently ranked it as one of the safest places to live in America despite being the 11th largest city in the country. Also, Money Magazine ranked it as one of the six best cities to live in the United States.
Chesapeake is home to over 242,000 residents, including about 26,000 former United States military servicemen and servicewomen.

This independent city in the Commonwealth of Virginia is home to the Naval Support Activity Northwest Annex, which is a military base that provides support to the 11 tenant commands. Outside of this center, the NSA Northwest Annex boasts several Naval Security Forces training schools. This area also hosts some communications and information commands, including one for the Navy.
Additionally, you can find the Chesapeake VA Clinic, which serves local veterans in the area. This primary care facility is located on Military Highway. It offers services such as rehabilitation, physical therapy, mental health care and more.
What We Do to Help Our Beloved Veterans
Our nation is known for “taking care of its own,” and our government is doing whatever it can to enable our veterans to receive the assistance due them as they return to civilian life. However, despite the government’s efforts, a yawning gap of service still needs to be filled.
Veteran Car Donations has teamed up with veteran-focused IRS-determined 501(C)3 nonprofit organizations to address this concern. Our job is to operate various vehicle donation programs to fund our charity partners’ programs and services that benefit our beloved veterans. Vehicle donations bring us one step closer to our goal of eliminating veteran homelessness, unemployment, and mental health issues.
We auction off all donated vehicles and use the proceeds to support our nonprofit partners in providing deserving veterans with the following services:
- Free access to mental health facilities for veterans who have post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), traumatic brain injury (TBI), and other mental health problems;
- Mortgage-free homes that are specially adapted for veterans who have severe combat-related injuries;
- Educational scholarships and tutoring support for veterans who want to earn a college degree or improve their skill sets;
- Job training and mentoring programs for those who want to increase their chances of landing a stable and rewarding job in the civilian sector;
- Grief counseling for the families of our fallen heroes;
- General transitioning assistance for those who have just separated from the service.
