Here's Why Wheels For Wishes Is The Best Place To Donate A Car In Virginia
If you have an unwanted vehicle taking up space in your driveway, garage, or shed, donate it and contribute to the green movement while also letting your vehicle help to grant wishes for Virginia kids.
We tow you for free, anywhere in Virginia, no matter what condition your car is in.
Wheels For Wishes saves you valuable time and gives you a 100 percent tax-deductible receipt to use on your 1098-c during tax season.
The value of a hassle-free donation experience, freed up real estate and a great tax deduction is worth it versus the hassle of selling and storing.
Plus, local kids will get to live their dreams through Make-A-Wish.
Your donation benefits Make-A-Wish Greater Virginia and helps kids feel like kids again when dealing with critical illnesses.

Our Mission
Wheels For Wishes believes that every child, no matter his or her health, deserves a chance to have a happy and fulfilling childhood. By donating your vehicle, we are able to raise funds to support Make-A-Wish chapters in locations throughout the country, helping grant wishes to children with life-threatening medical conditions. A wish is an opportunity for a child to focus on something other than their medical routines, and be a kid again.

As of January 2025, based on the average cost of a wish, donors like you have helped Wheels for Wishes to grant more than 14,008 wishes and counting.
