Hospice vehicle donation is on the rise. Your area Canadian hospice welcomes your car, truck, van, SUV, or motorcycle donation.
Nothing says it better than a multi-vehicle hospice donor
It is not unusual, having had a gratifying, efficient, and generous donation experience, for donors to come back again and again. One Alberta social services company is an example of the satisfaction of donating many vehicles over time.
When the support services entity originally found us, they had four (4!) company vehicles to donate. They gifted an entire fleet of five Dodge Caravans over a four month period.
Although it was a fleet, each minivan was assessed on its own merit. Some were re-sale ready; some needed to come off the road. Donations ranging from $500.00 to $716.12 were raised for each one!
With over 80,000 Canadian charities to choose from, the agency could have selected anyone to gift. Their charity of choice? Pilgrims Hospice Society was the grateful recipient!
But wait! They weren’t done giving, yet!
As we speak, we are working on yet another grief support donation from this social services crew! Hospice Calgary Society will be receiving their proceeds from this week’s minivan donation shortly.
Supporting experts in grief companioning
While grief is common to us all, offering grief support is something special indeed. Death care and the depth of creativity, compassion, and good humour practiced by staff and volunteers in these spaces is laudable.

Extending legacy, tending story: every car counts
We have the happy privilege of working alongside Canadian vehicle donors in countless personal circumstances. If you are considering donating a vehicle for hospice, we understand this may be because you have personal connection to the depth of loving care they provide.
It is our effort to extend that kind of support through this giving option. If you arrive to our program with a grief story (often folx are planning their own estate, or settling an estate for a loved one), you will be met with spacious compassion. You will also be met with efficiency and a simple process.
You will not be asked for unnecessary documentation.
There will be no press for details or required to tell a story you do not wish to tell…yet again.
There will, however, be clear instruction and communication. Things will move along as quickly (or as slowly) as you wish. And your gift will go exactly where you wish it to. We welcome your call (1-877-250-4904) or your online submission form. And we look forward to serving you in your generous effort to give back to your community!
