Donating A Vehicle To Charity
At Your Choice To Donate, our emphasis is on supporting local charities by handling the donation of vehicles like cars, trucks, vans, buses, and agricultural equipment and commercial vehicles on their behalf. We handle all the paperwork and conversations with the donor, arrange for vehicle towing, recycling or minor repairs and selling of the vehicle, sending the financial gift to the charity. The charity is responsible for issue the charitable tax receipt.
This is a win-win for the charity. They can focus on the important work they do without needing to handle administrative tasks that would take away time from their primary mission. And, once the work is done they receive the financial gift that helps them in the charitable work they do.
Local and regional charities touch and impact communities in profound ways. However, the time spent raising funds to support the work they do can limit their effectiveness as it uses up valuable resources (time and money) that can be better utilized in the charity’s work.
The Your Choice To Donate Vehicle Donation Program is designed to be as hands-free as possible for the charity. To provide resources for local charities with virtually no effort needed by them.

Vehicle donations provide valuable financial resources to support the running of local charities. With minor repairs, some vehicles may be worth more to a charity resold. If not, the vehicle will be recycled with parts and any metal sold for the benefit of the charity. Each vehicle is evaluated to determine the best course of action.
Vehicles are towed at no cost to the donor and once the vehicle is disposed of the proceeds are donated to the charity chosen by the donor.
