Why Wheels For Wishes is The Best Option For Your Vehicle
Why would you donate your vehicle when you could sell it or repair it? Vehicle donation actually brings a lot of value to donors when it's with Wheels For Wishes!
Here's why donating may be a better option than selling, storing, or repairing your unwanted vehicle:
Selling Can Be A Hassle
Selling your vehicle typically means you are posting ads, haggling for sale price, scheduling test drives, and keeping your schedule clear. All the while, you have to pay for insurance and make sure your vehicle retains its value by maintaining it.
Donating your car gets you value through tax deduction. Plus, you don't have to deal with any of the hassle!
It's as simple as calling or filling out an online form, and we pick up your car donation for free!
Storing Your Vehicle Takes Up important Space
Storing your unwanted car can take up crucial space in your garage or driveway. You simply might not know what to do with it, but it is taking space and shelter away from the vehicles that you use!
Donating it clears up that space and gives you a renewed sense of organization!
Repairing Your Vehicle Can Be Expensive and Time Consuming
Sometimes, the most valuable thing is time. Paying a shop to fix your car is often more expensive than it's worth.
At the same time, it can often be a huge project to repair your vehicle. Not only do you have to pay for parts and do the labor, but you have to do it right!
Vehicle donations take away the stress and effort, and you get a nice tax deduction! Plus, you're helping local New York kids in the process through Make-A-Wish!
Your vehicle Can Help Grant Wishes!
The greatest argument for car donation to Wheels For Wishes is that you are benefiting local New York Make-A-Wish kids! The charitable funds from your unwanted car will help make dreams come true for amazing kids!
Donate your car to our tax-deductible 501(c)3 nonprofit organization today and help make dreams come true! Donating your car to our 501(c)3 funds the important work of Make-A-Wish in New York.
Vehicle donation helps you and Make-A-Wish kids get the best value for your old car. We'll come to you anywhere, including New Rochelle and Mount Vernon. Donate your car to charity today!
