Estate Vehicle Donation | Legacy Giving

Posted by Sandra on in Blog, Making a Difference, You and Your Health

The How-To of estate vehicle donation: settling an estate is made easier by having us step in and take care of a few things for you!

"Everything was so wonderfully simple. Emails were returned promptly and the mechanic was great. It was one of the easiest transactions that I had to do as far as the passing of my Father and coping with my Daughters illness(coping with my loved one's estate).
