Myth: Donating a car is challenging
Fact: Some individuals avoid it simply because they feel it is difficult. In reality, the process is extremely simple. You just fill out an online form on the organization’s portal. The organization contacts you and decides the time and other details for picking up the vehicle. The donor receives the receipt via mail or in-person to be used for redemption of tax benefits. See, the process is extremely straightforward.
Myth: Most vehicles aren’t accepted by charities
Most charities accept all sorts of vehicles, including cars, bikes, trucks, motor homes, boats, and even airplanes. The condition of the vehicle also doesn’t matter to most of the organizations. They accept cars even if they aren’t in working condition.
Myth: The benefits to society are almost negligible
If you donate your car to Cars For Christ, be sure that you are contributing to society at various levels. First, the youth responsible for fixing the vehicle acquires skills needed for employment. Second, the proceeds from selling the car are used for buying food, clothes, and other essentials for lower-income families. Cars For Christ also donates the Holy Bible.
