How Car Donation Works

Charity Motors helps you get the most value for your used car and gives you the freedom to donate the proceeds to the nonprofit or charity of your choice. Unlike other car donation programs, we can give you the FULL fair-market value of your car, giving you the maximum possible tax deduction. And we do not lock you into one preferred charity – whether you want to support your local church, firefighters, or a national children’s organization, we put the choice back in your hands.
