ACLU Foundation of Southern California: Turning Vehicle Donations Into Support

The ACLU Foundation of Southern California (ACLU SoCal) works to protect and advance civil liberties and civil rights in Southern California. Through legal advocacy, community engagement, education, and other efforts, the organization works on issues affecting people and communities throughout the region. Support from donors helps organizations like ACLU SoCal continue pursuing their missions and providing resources for the work they undertake.

One unique way to support the ACLU Foundation of Southern California is by donating an unwanted vehicle through Cars2Charities. If you have a car, truck, SUV, motorcycle, or other qualifying vehicle that you no longer need, your vehicle can become a charitable contribution. Rather than leaving an unused vehicle sitting in your driveway or going through the time and effort of selling it privately, you can donate it and designate ACLU SoCal as the organization you would like to support.

Support ACLU SoCal With a Vehicle Donation

A car donation can be a convenient way to support a charitable organization while giving an unwanted vehicle a new purpose. Cars2Charities helps facilitate the vehicle donation process, including arranging pickup and processing the donated vehicle.

When you choose to donate your vehicle to the ACLU Foundation of Southern California through Cars2Charities, the proceeds generated through the donation can provide financial support to the organization. Your vehicle may have value even if it is older, has been sitting unused, or is no longer the right vehicle for your household.

Every vehicle donation represents an opportunity to turn an asset you no longer need into charitable support.

How Vehicle Donation Works

Donating your vehicle through Cars2Charities is designed to be straightforward. To begin, call 855-520-2100 and speak with a live donation specialist. The team can help you through the donation process, answer questions, and coordinate the next steps.

Cars2Charities can arrange free towing for your donated vehicle at a convenient time. This means you don’t have to worry about transporting an unwanted car yourself. Once the donation process is underway, Cars2Charities handles the necessary steps for processing the vehicle.

Choose the ACLU Foundation of Southern California

When you begin your vehicle donation, you can request that your donation support the ACLU Foundation of Southern California. Choosing a specific organization allows you to direct your charitable giving toward a cause or nonprofit that is meaningful to you.

A vehicle that may no longer serve a purpose for you can therefore become a source of financial support for an organization and the work it carries out.

Receive Your Donation Documentation

After your donated vehicle is processed and sold, Cars2Charities will provide the applicable documentation for your records. Depending on your circumstances and current IRS requirements, you may be eligible for a charitable tax deduction.

The amount of any potential deduction depends on factors such as the vehicle’s sale price, how the vehicle is handled after donation, and your individual tax situation. A vehicle donation is not automatically deductible at the vehicle’s full market value. Donors should retain their documentation and consult a qualified tax professional for advice about their specific tax circumstances.

Give Your Unwanted Vehicle a New Purpose

A vehicle that is no longer needed doesn’t have to become a burden. Car donation provides another way to put an unwanted vehicle to work while supporting a charitable organization.

By donating your car through Cars2Charities and selecting the ACLU Foundation of Southern California, you can turn an unused vehicle into financial support for an organization working on civil liberties and civil rights issues in Southern California.

Whether you have an older car, an extra vehicle, or one that has simply reached the end of its time with your family, your donation can give it a new purpose.
