About Us

Your vehicle donation experts.

Helping people, one donation at a time.

We help donors just like you turn unwanted vehicles into cash that goes to any non-profit you choose. We make donating a car to charity so easy.

Did you know that Cars2Charities is a preferred partner for many car donation charities?

We help your favorite causes get more from their existing fundraising efforts. How? By making it possible for them to accept a donated car from anyone. We provide all the behind-the-scenes services to non-profits, so they never have to see or touch the vehicle you donate: this way, they can focus on providing the services that make you love and support them in the first place.

Our Values

Service Excellence

We work to provide quality at every step, to every donor and partner -- to be fast, simple, clean and timely. We constantly seek to understand the needs of those who count on us, and to exceed your expectations.

Integrity

We say what we think. We do what we say. We are trusted because we are honest and dependable. We strive to align our beliefs with our every action.

Generosity

We seek to model cheerful, generous giving in our own lives. We express our gratitude freely, and expect to see lives changed as a result of philanthropy and generosity.

Accountability

We never say, “It’s not my fault,” or “It’s not my job. We take responsibility for meeting commitments — personal ones as well as those of the entire organization. We own the results.

Partnership

We work together. We genuinely care for and support both our donors and our charity partners.

Continuous Improvement

We add value* to everything we touch, and we maximize the benefits others receive. “How can we do this better?” is our daily motto. We systematically keep making every step simpler, quicker, better.
