Donate used cars through Opportunity Cars

Are you looking to donate a used car?  Opportunity Cars is a network of more than 150 nonprofit organizations dedicated to helping low-wage workers acquire reliable used vehicles (including cars, trucks, and vans) to support their ability to find and retain quality employment.

Opportunity Cars programs are located in urban and rural areas in 33 states, and over 10,000 families in 2005 gained access to private automobiles through a Cars program, transforming their lives and giving them a previously unimaginable level of economic security, safety, and freedom.

If you donate a used car through an Opportunity Cars program, you open the door to economic opportunity to struggling families by helping them seek or keep a job, access safe and affordable housing, medical care, educational opportunities and a host of other important services. With your contribution, you help yourself, local communities, and low-income families.

CarYou may have heard that tax deductions for cars donated to charities are no longer allowed. Not true! The new tax law allows donors to STILL DEDUCT THE FAIR MARKET VALUE when the vehicle is passed on directly to a low income family.
