You may not meet an individual with Parkinson’s disease often, but when you do, you know it. Have you ever met someone whose hands were shaky and they had trouble walking, despite being a relatively young adult? Or their speech was hard to understand and both their physical and emotional balance was unstable?
We’d all like to reach out to someone handling hardship of that kind, if we only knew how.
Did you know the vehicle you’ve used for countless happy journeys can ease the difficult journey ahead for a Parkinson’s patient?
Donate a car to the Parkinson’s Disease Foundation and grant that ray of hope to so many who are suffering.
Parkinson’s disease is a neurodegenerative brain disorder that tends to progress slowly, usually over several years. Because the brain stops producing dopamine, victims of the disease become less and less able to regulate their body movements and emotions. Needless to say, it is a hard road to endure.
Their social lives are impacted, of course, because in its earliest stages, victims of the disease produce tremors, which are impossible to hide. So, their worlds become smaller and smaller. What can be done about the degenerative effects of Parkinson’s?
Tackling this monumental challenge becomes possible through the Parkinson’s Disease Foundation.
When you make a vehicle donation to Parkinson’s Disease Foundation through Riteway Car Donations, you’re bringing resources to research. Did you know the foundation is operating the largest clinical study of Parkinson’s disease right now? They’re following nearly 10,000 patients in four countries! That can only be done with funding.
Not a fan of writing checks? You’re in luck! By donating a car to Parkinson’s Disease Foundation you are improving the odds for patients who are coping with symptoms of degeneration.
Are you making some shifts in your life, maybe entering a new phase? If that phase involves expanding your family or launching adult children, there’s probably a car out there that would better suit your needs than the one you’re driving.
Do you have a demanding job and the outdated features in your car are causing you to fall behind your competitors? Another good reason to consider purchasing a new one!
Maybe you just want to slip into something new, but feel a little guilty about it. You can make yourself feel better about your upgrade when you donate a vehicle to Parkinson’s Disease Foundation.
Once you’re ready to pull the trigger and move on to something newer, we’ve got some suggestions for making the most of your old car.
If you stick with the familiar route and do a simple trade-in you’re sacrificing a lot of your vehicle’s value. And CarMax too – you only get about 30-40% of what it’s worth that way! Another option is to sell it yourself, but it’s a huge burden. First you have to choose a platform (facebook, ebay, etc.) and take (really good) pictures. Then you have to put up with (sometimes flaky) buyers who don’t show up. .
Vehicle donations to Parkinson’s Disease Foundation through Riteway Car Donations are so much easier! You reach out to us and your part is done. It’s the best way to reap the benefits (tax break) and help the cause (Parkinson’s Disease Foundation).
It’s our process that puts you in the winner’s circle. Instead of settling for the small potatoes you get from a trade-in, your car’s value is maximized because our experts assess your car to determine if any repairs or upgrades are in order. If so, our technicians do the work, which usually means your vehicle sells for 25-50% more. Your tax write-off is higher and the Foundation gets more money!
Can you think of a better way to get on your accountant’s good side?
Okay, so you don’t have an accountant. If you use Turbo Tax it’s the same. With a car donation tax deduction to Parkinson’s Disease Foundation, you write off 100% of the sale value of your car!
