Are you looking for the best way to dispose of your old and damaged fishing trawler? You may be delighted to know that Veteran Car Donations has come up with an easy and convenient way for you to part ways with your boat in a most meaningful way.

How Trawler Donations Help Our Retired Troops

When you donate a trawler to us, we’ll auction it off and use the proceeds to help fund the programs and services of our veteran-focused charity partners. These IRS-approved 501(c)(3) nonprofit organizations provide the following benefits to their beneficiaries:

  • Various forms of assistance to veterans confined in military hospitals;
  • Treatment of those suffering from Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder and other mental health issues;
  • Programs to help veterans and their spouses find meaningful employment that suits their abilities;
  • Financial and other forms of aid to poor, low-income, and homeless veterans;
  • Therapeutic activities to help veterans rehabilitate and reintegrate themselves into society as well as relax and enjoy the company of their loved ones to strengthen family ties; and
  • Sponsorship of events that encourage companies and organizations to give back to the veteran community.
