Has anybody ever told you that the best way to get your hands off an unwanted deck boat is to donate it to us at Veteran Car Donations? For one, you won’t have to break a sweat or pay for towing to quickly get rid of your vessel. Plus, you’ll get to enjoy meaningful rewards in exchange for your donation.
The Challenging Process of Transitioning to Civilian Life
From the time they enlisted to serve until the end of their service, the brave men and women of our military maintained their commitment to serve our nation. Many of them made huge sacrifices, risked their lives, and fought valiantly to defend our freedom and protect our security when they were sent to conflict areas overseas.
If you think that coming back home for good and reintegrating themselves into the civilian sector after years spent in the military is a welcome relief for them, think again.
Contrary to what most of us may expect, our veterans face challenging times during this transition period. A large number of them are unable to enter the civilian workforce because they couldn’t figure out a way to translate their military skills into skills that are of value to potential employers. Others struggle with untreated mental health problems.
Whether we admit it or not, there’s a considerable lack of support for our nation’s heroes, some of whom have ironically become homeless beggars due to extreme poverty. The next time you see them languishing on the streets, know that all of us have a moral obligation to help them.
What Makes Veteran Car Donations Different?
Veteran Car Donations serves as the online donation platform of our IRS-certified 501(c)3 charity partners. When you participate in our deck boat donations program, you’ll make a huge difference in the lives of our nation’s heroes. It doesn’t matter if your deck boat has a broken engine or if it’s as good as new – you can count on us to treat each donated vessel the same way.
Our proven track record and years of experience in efficiently processing deck boat donations guarantee that you’ll have the smoothest giving experience you could possibly have. We’ll make sure that you’ll stand to gain the maximum tax deduction for your deck boat donation.
Even better, struggling veterans will receive desperately-needed programs and services such as the following:
