How Do I Donate?

1. Check our guidelines on what to donate.

2. Fill out a donation application or call our toll free number at
   1-800-405-3127. Generally, you will be able to speak to a live donor representative, seven days a week (Pacific Time: Monday through Friday, 5am to 9pm, and Saturday and Sunday, 8:30am to 4:30pm).If you are trying to reach us and it is after hours, please do still call; we will get back to you as quickly as possible.

3. We will send you a couple of forms for your signature. Those forms and your signed title are the authorization we need to transfer ownership of your vehicle.

4. Schedule the pick-up of your vehicle, at your convenience, and we will transport your car free of charge.

5. Retain the formal letter of thanks, which certifies that you have donated the item, as this is your receipt. This letter identifies your contribution as tax-deductible by the standards set by the IRS. Your tax professional is the best source of information regarding charitable tax deductions.

What Happens to My Donation?

In all cases donated items are sold by well established vehicle auctions to the highest bidder. In that way delay is minimized and the chance of fraud is eliminated.

It's as simple as that!
