Children with serious illnesses get advanced treatment, comfort and advocacy when you donate a car to Children’s Hospital of Orange County. Your support of families who are suffering from the painful news that their child is fighting a life-threatening disease is a generous act that also benefits you with a tax write-off. 
Children’s Hospital is a powerful institution with four centers: The CHOC Children’s Heart, Neuroscience, Orthopaedic and Hyundai Cancer Institutes. It is associated with the University of California, Irvine where they conduct research to find cures for pediatric patients.
More than 2 million children from four counties have turned to CHOC for their healthcare needs. And the ability of families to pay is not a part of the equation. That is why it’s vital that resources such as proceeds from car donations to Children’s Hospital of Orange County stream in to support those efforts.
And because CHOC serves a disproportionate number of patients from low-income families, the hospital needs support to continue providing high-quality healthcare.
In most cases, we accept donations of all types of vehicles, whether they are running or not. We process all makes and models of: cars, trucks, motorcycles, vans, RVs, boats, golf carts, and more!

We take the reins at this point to maximize the donation for both our donors and charities. We do this by assessing the vehicle and adding value to increase the selling price of the car.
It’s a situation many people dream about – a successful way to support a cause you care about without the work involved.
By donating, you can share your passion for a cause and draw attention to what you consider important. In return not only do you receive a tax deduction, but the feeling of know that you are helping others.
Car donations are considered by the Internal Revenue Service and the State to be COMPLETELY TAX DEDUCTIBLE.
This means that the price your car is sold for will be tax deductible. Both you and your non-profit will receive IRS Form 1098-C within 30-50 days of the sale of your vehicle, making the transaction transparent to all parties. Plus, we do all the work. There’s no standing in lines at the DMV or dealing with the paperwork to transfer the title.
