Childrens Hospital Los Angeles (CHLA)
Why should I donate a car to Children’s Hospital Los Angeles? Founded in 1901, Children’s Hospital Los Angeles is the oldest freestanding children’s hospital in California. Over more than a century, CHLA has grown into one of the foremost pediatric hospitals in the state, providing unparalleled clinical expertise, world-class research and compassionate, family-centered care to its patients.
CHLA’s physicians and caregivers bring that high level of care to more than 600,000 patient visits this year. A nationally recognized pediatric hospital, Children’s Hospital Los Angeles is honored by U.S. News & World Report year after year as a premier health care facility for children.
CHLA is also the safety-net hospital of choice in Southern California, providing more than $380 million in annual community benefits that include unreimbursed costs for medical services of government-sponsored programs and charity care. This is a direct result of the philanthropic support from CHLA’s community of champions and advocates.
A tax-deductible vehicle donation plays an essential role in helping CHLA fulfill its mission of creating hope and building healthier futures for children. Your generosity will support breakthrough treatments, innovative therapies and research that saves countless young lives each and every year.
How can I donate my car to Children’s Hospital?
The car, truck or SUV that served the transportation needs in your life can easily be transformed into a lifesaving vehicle for families receiving treatment at Children’s Hospital Los Angeles. We manage your donation every step of the way. You select the vehicle pickup location and time that are most convenient for you. We promptly email you a temporary receipt that outlines the next steps, and you’ll meet with an expert towing driver who will handle your donation with care. We then maximize the value of your vehicle by evaluating it for appropriate repairs or improvements. After our specialist’s 16-point inspection, the improvements we make typically result in a sale price that is 25%-50% higher than the “as was” value of the donation through any other car donation program. Thank you for your thoughtful consideration.
