In addition to effectively handling car donations within the USA, it is our mission to spread love, kindness, and generosity to others. Here at Cars2Charities we
value exceptional customer service and full transparency with our donors. With this in mind we created some resources that we think will be both helpful and
valuable for our donors and charities.

Donating a car to charity is a simple way to support a good cause, but many donors are curious about what happens after their vehicle is picked up. Once the tow truck drives away, the journey of your donated car is just beginning. From inspection to auction, your vehicle can go through several steps that ultimately help generate funding for charitable programs.

Understanding what happens behind the scenes can help donors feel confident that their contribution is making a meaningful impact.
