Are you aware that the value of your car can do that – be a means to provide for seniors? The proceeds from the car you no longer need can be directed to many services, including food for the hungry, through a car donation to a soup kitchen or food pantry. You can donate a car to seniors by naming the nonprofit group of your choice – we gladly give proceeds to any 501 (c)(3) organization.
Screenwriter Frank Howard Clark once said, “We’ve put more effort into helping folks reach old age, than into helping them enjoy it.”
A big factor in helping folks enjoy their lives as they get older is the existence of desirable housing options, from assisted living to convalescent hospitals. Your car donation to Eastern Star Homes puts more support toward providing acceptable housing and services for seniors.
According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), in the United States, the proportion of the population 65 years and older is projected to reach 19.6 percent in the year 2030.

If you have a heart for the Native American population, you may be aware that Southwest Indian Fund donations meet a wide range of needs for tribes including Navajo, Zuni and Hopi. The organization helps individuals obtain food, water, shelter, and such projects as the “stove and heat assistance program.” Priority is given to the elderly, the handicapped and families with young children.
We follow the IRS guidelines for your car donation tax deduction for human services, which means you can rest easy. Both you and your non-profit will receive IRS Form 1098-C within 30 days of the sale of your vehicle, making the sale value transparent, so both you and the charity of your choice know what your vehicle is sold for.
Yes, there are more possibilities than a car or truck donation to human services through us. You can make a recreational vehicle donation to seniors through Cars2Charities too. You can donate a motorcycle to seniors, or even an ATV you no longer use can be donated to benefit human services.
If it’s been a long time since you’ve hit the water with your “toys,” you may want to donate a boat for seniors. We also pick up your RV donation for seniors, or if you have a camper donation for human services. Do you have a golf cart that no longer runs? A golf cart donation for seniors not only gives you the tax benefit, it may be saving you a lot of money in battery replacement.
Whichever charity you choose to support, do all the work. There’s no standing in lines at the DMV or dealing with the paperwork from the title transfer – we handle it beginning to end.
When it’s time to replace a vehicle, consider a car donation for seniors or to offer human services to others through Cars2Charities.
