More than one kind of green in this kind of giving!

Vehicle donation is a win-win-win. Here’s how:

Win #1: Your charity of choice (you can give to ANY Canadian charity) receives otherwise inaccessible donation dollars. Because there is a lot involved in processing cars for donation, this kind of fund raising is out of reach for most individual charities. Donate a Car Canada takes care of all of the details from first steps all the way through to the tax receipt. This means your organization incurs $0.00 in costs or fees. So, there’s the monetary value of your gift to the charity, and also the absolute simplicity of the process on their end of things! Maybe this is actually a double-win in itself?

Win #2: You receive a free tow, a tax receipt, and a clear driveway. Hmmmm. Maybe this is a win-win-win as well?

Win #3: Here’s where there’s another kind of green in the giving. More than just cash-in-hand for your cause, you are making a direct impact on Canada’s environment. Vehicles are re-sold whenever possible, allowing for continued use and less waste. Recycle-ready vehicles are processed in an environmentally friendly manner. A win for all of is.

The ripple effects of your simple human kindness

All of those wins, and we haven’t addressed the intangibles of the generosity of vehicle donation! Again and again we see the rippling outward of the already-extraordinary goodness of giving in this way. The ripple effects start with the vehicle donor, of course. And then there’s the experience that generosity sparks in our transport agents (they really dig serving donors like you!). Beyond that there’s the extended invitation to the donor’s loved ones and community to give as they are able, where they are able.

Not everyone is in a position to donate a car, but each of us have something to offer our communities. Every act of kindness spurs us on to reciprocate, or to initiate, our own loving actions!

One donor’s experience says it all

G.K. donated their recycle-ready Honda for the First Nations Child & Family Caring Society of Canada. They write,

“I was very attached to my old car and found the entire donation process
very emotional and it has taken time for me to process everything.
This being said, I have only positive feedback about every step of this
process with you. I am very glad to have chosen Donate a Car as the
organization through which I made this donation.

The biggest reason was that I liked being able to choose the charity to which I am donating and
you had so many great charities to choose from.
I also appreciated that I spoke to a caring, and helpful human when I first
called about the process and how to get started. This person had a lot of good information, knew about the car
conditions and was very honest about how the car would contribute to a
donation based on the description of the condition. They also had great
information on how the process works and the process specific to Quebec,
and could direct me to the right person to ask questions to about the
registration changes.

Then, it was time for the tow…

Locally, the garage I worked with and the person who came to pick up the
vehicle really made an effort during the busy season of tire change over,
to pick up the car and facilitate the registration change process. They
were even flexible with the pick up time, but were honest about their
availability and managed expectations well.

I hope that you can keep up the good work and maintain the humanistic
approach of this organization. It is very refreshing when the rest of the
world is automating so many interactions.”

Is this kind of giving too good to be true?

We pride ourselves on being a business that readily provides full disclosure. This is important from the onset of your vehicle donation process.

We have three methods of managing your donated car, van, SUV, truck, motorcycle, or boat. Each method is curated to your unique vehicle. Every truck has a tale to tell; every SUV is singin’ its own song. So, we need to be sure we don’t apply a one-process-fits-all system.

1) If your vehicle is selected for our recycle process, the donation amount for a vehicle can be between $30.00 – $800.00. This is dependent on the area in which it is donated, and what the market will pay for the year/make/model. The vehicle will be picked up by our towing agent at no cost to you.

2) Your vehicle may be considered for sale at auction. Several factors go into qualifying a vehicle for auction. These include, but are not limited to, drivability, type of mechanical problems (if any), age, damage, visual appearance, and mileage.

Vehicles sold at auction are sold ‘as is’ and ‘unreserved’. They are sold to the highest bidder, as a full and final sale. Outcome at auction varies. As such, we cannot guarantee a specific sale result.

3) Our third option applies to vehicles that may not perform well at auction, but that are not ready for recycling. Our re-sale/recycle process will see our agent pick up your vehicle for free.

Once they have it on their yard they will assess it to determine if it should be re-sold or recycled. This will be based on the current market. If they see re-sale value in your vehicle, they will advertise it to their own buyer base, selling it as-is, to the highest bidder. They will send us the net proceeds from the re-sale price. If they determine that they will not find interested buyers, they will recycle your car.

Our experience tells us that we do not always see Blue/Black book value when we employ the re-sale process. That said, if you explore our social media posts you’ll see that we routinely see vehicles sell for thousands of dollars in donation returns for the donors’ charities!

Vehicle donation is simple, quick, free

The benefits of vehicle donation extend far beyond helping the chosen charity. And helping that charity is so very important in and of itself! ‘Ready to embark on your own donation experience? Fill in our online form! In less than 10 minutes you’ll be on your way to your free tow. Or, call in to 1-877-250-4904. A funny, happy, capable human is at-the-ready to walk you through. Then it’s just a matter of waiting for your tow call, and receiving your tax receipt. One generous, impactful, ripple-making way to show your charity of choice that you care!

Donate a car, make a difference

If you have spent any time on our website or Google reviews, you might have already spotted the community caring that goes on around here? One of our charities recently wrote,

There is a direct correlation with the number of donations we receive to the number of people we can reach to help them with their decision to become an organ donor as well as any concerns or questions they might have regarding becoming a live organ donor. Donate a Car has been a big part in supporting the Canadian Transplant Society and we truly owe them much gratitude for their insight and generosity. Thank you so much Donate a Car.

Transplant Society

The charity you love (and we do mean ANY charity in Canada…in ANY province in the country) will welcome your car donation. There is no cost to your charity for this care, and every dollar can go to their meaningful work.

Getting it right for your charity of choice

Donate a Car Canada has been caring for Canada’s charities for over two decades. By either re-selling or recycling your donated vehicle, we work to get the highest donation possible for your cause.

The Canadian Cancer Society has been with us from the beginning:

Donate a Car Canada has graciously contributed to the Canadian Cancer Society for years, raising $1,495,691.79 and counting! (A little DACC edit: this number is now 1,569,263.13+!) Thanks to this program – and to all of you who choose to support the Canadian Cancer Society through the donation of your vehicle – we can continue to make progress that will save more lives today and for generations to come. Thank you for joining the fight.

Canadian Cancer Society

Another long-time charity notes,

The Society is grateful to Donate a Car Canada for supporting our vision to help people “live well while creating a future without arthritis.”

The Arthritis Society

And let’s not forget our furry-feathered-friend charities. These dollar-stretching organizations make every car donation penny count!

The Animal Rescue Crew Society would like to extend a heart felt testimonial of the crucial assistance that Donate a Car Canada provides us. AARCS mission is to improve the lives of animals by rescuing and providing sanctuary to abandoned, surrendered or abused animals; assisting communities to achieve healthy and respectful relationships with animals; promoting responsible and compassionate guardianship and advocating on behalf of all animals. We could not do our crucial work without the support of community networks such as Donate a Car Canada. They provide a unique way of contributing that makes it easy for donors and charities like us to benefit from their program. We have raised thousands of dollars [a side note from DACC: this number is now at $187,395.22+ and counting!] through their program that has allowed us to help animals in need now. Thank you Donate a Car for the support you have generously provided us.  Through help like yours we provide foster homes to animals in needs and regularly run rescue efforts.

Kids, critters, community, and more

Donating a vehicle is a big decision. My own family has donated several vehicles through the years, and each decision is made carefully. The biggest conundrum? Which charity to choose! Inn From the Cold (a local family shelter) was a heart-choice for us…out of a list of so many other worthy works!

When selecting the charity you wish to donate to, you might start by thinking close to home. What is the care that is most affecting you and yours right now? Perhaps the concern of the moment is Canada’s wildlife, or conservation? We have charities for that! If health is top priority, there is a charity tending the very aspect of physical wellbeing that you would like to support.

Choosing the cause for your car donation

Animal care, shelter, and rescue charities are top-choice charities for car donors. Charities promoting inclusion-affirmation-equity need vehicle donations, too! Theatre and the arts, literacy, and education are all held up by supporting charities. You can donate your car, truck, van, SUV, or motorcycle their way as well!

Vehicle donation really is all about what matters to you: your car, your cause, your tax receipt.

Take the time you need to select your charity. Scroll our Reviews to learn what it has been like for donors and charities alike to experience this kind of donation.

Reach out to one of your favourite charities to talk to them about what it has been like for them to receive vehicle donations. If they have not yet had that experience? No problem! Your donation will be the one that ensures they are added to our donation form drop-down list. That way, every future donor will have the chance to select them as Charity of Choice!

Something special happened in Ontario this summer: A community car donation event is adding up to giving and giving and giving again!

We’ve been waiting expectantly to provide some updates on the Grand Bend Motorplex / $1000 Challenge Make A Wish Canada! Our agent and their teams have worked diligently to provide free tow support and assessment on multiple vehicles making their way to our program on behalf of the charity.

Those donations are adding up. At the end of the “race”? Thirteen rough n’ ready vehicles are rollin’ through for the children’s charity!

More on that in a minute, but first, a reminder of what the excitement is all about:

Drivin’ laps (so many laps!) for Make a Wish Canada in SW Ontario

Here are all of the goodies about this fabulous fundraiser:

$1000 Challenge Make A Wish Canada Fundraiser

When: Tuesday, August 6, 2024 — 10:00am – 4:00pm

Where: Southwestern Ontario car enthusiasts will gather at Grand Bend Motorplex to run their vehicles on the road course for 4 hours.

Admission: Free!

The challenge

All drivers found and purchases a vehicle for less than $1,000 dollars to drive the course.

Winners were judged on number of laps completed and how they made their vehicle stand out from the pack.

This is community car donation at it’s most elaborate!

How those cars add up to cash for Make a Wish Canada

Once the event was complete, all of the vehicles were picked up by Donate A Car Canada. All proceeds will be donated to Make A Wish Canada. It really does take a village.

And what about you?

The public was encouraged to head out for this community car donation experience and take part in the road course run as well as the car show that happened during the event. A BBQ lunch was provided with all proceeds going to Make A Wish Canada! The Grand Bend Sobeys graciously donated all the food and drinks. The Grand Bend legion provided a BBQ and a generous donation, too!

How Donate a Car Canada is involved

Once the community car donation event was complete, all of the racers donated the race vehicles to Make-A-Wish Canada through our program. We love it when generosity revs up lap after lap like this! Not only were funds raised at the event itself, but the giving continues as we process the actual vehicles.

The way this works: our supporting agent is re-selling and recycling all of these vehicles. The net proceeds from that process will go directly to the charity. Each vehicle donor will receive a tax receipt (via CanadaHelps) for this additional gift.

Do you have a vehicle of your own to donate? The process is simple and quick! Not only that, the tow is always free! Just click the “Donate Now” button on our site and we’ll have you rollin’ for charity in no time.

UPDATE: So? How did it go?

Make A Wish Canada is the happy recipient of a generous bundle of vehicle donations! On top of the funds raised at the actual Grand Bend Motorplex event, we are in process with our supporting agent on 13 vehicles from this community car donation extravaganza:

2002 Ford Cube Van

1998 BMW 328ia

So far? Over $4,000.00 in donations are in the works for Make-A-Wish Canada! That’s a big deal — especially considering that some of these units came out of the race chassis-on-wheels and nothin’ more! Soon, funds will come our way so that all of these gifts can be disbursed to the charity. This may be be complete as early as accounting month-end in September.

Build your own community car donation event!

Not all community car donation events happen on a lap track. Sometimes, a neighbourhood or town is just ready to do a clean-up event. If this is you and your community, give us a call (1-877-250-4904). We can help ensure speedy and efficient vehicle removal of unused/unwanted vehicles. Every individual donor can choose their favourite charity as recipient for their gift. Or, you can come together as a collective and send all gifts to the same charity. Any which way, we are here to assist in ensuring a cheerful, simple, generous donation experience!

We can’t wait to work alongside you and your community!

Going for a hole-in-one — Giving through golf

Is there anything better than combining a sport you love with a cause you love? It’s a win-win! Raise critical dollars for caring works by playing a game!

That season is here. Coast to coast in Canada, golf courses are rolling out the red carpet, cranking up the BBQ, and revving up the carts. Where can you play? And who can you play for? The list of charities is much longer than you’d imagine!

In the rough about where to turn your golf tourni attention?

Let us save you a bit of overwhelm if you’re looking to support the charity you love in this unique way! I ran a Google search on, “charity golf tournaments canada.” Yup. You can imagine how long that list is!

Between now and the end of September, you could swing-and-miss your way right across Canada! No exaggeration. Every province. So many causes. You can even combine your tournament with a harbour cruise out in Vancouver.

Small towns, big cities, and rural courses alike. There are a lot of ways to play and raise donations at the same time.

So, let’s narrow the search!

Who do you really want to support?

Charitable generosity happens for all kinds of reasons.

We care about our fellow Canadians in crisis. Wild fire, floods, and trouble — we want to help.

Perhaps you and your loved ones have been tackling illness?

Your compassion might wish to spend itself on wildlife or animal shelter care.

Whether your attention is turned toward seniors, community, special needs, or the arts, there are charities ready to receive your gifts.

So, think charity first. Golf second. Search a cause that you love, combined with your location. And voila! Chances are, a nearby charity is getting ready to swing their clubs for their cause.

Making headlines across the country

Here are just a few of Donate a Car Canada’s receiving charities that are hitting the links:

In BC, play in the Big Brothers Golf Classic

Alberta is hosting the Red Deer Charity Golf Classic to raise funds for RMHC Alberta.

Manitoba bound? The Children’s Hospital Foundation of Manitoba classic is hole in one!

Hit a long drive for Paws & Putts in Ontario.

Nova Scotia is hosting an CMHA event: ZED Charity Golf Classic!

Beyond the back nine and into your charity purse

Saturn stands out in triple car donation

Connor’s first car donation was actually not a Saturn. In honour of a family member with Diabetes, he donated a Toyota to a charity supporting people affected by the illness. “Donating to Diabetes Canada seemed like a good idea at the time; they’d been around for a long time and they do good work.” His recycle-ready Toyota contributed to the work of informing, researching, educating, and advocacy! What an impact for those touched by this far-reaching disease.

Then, along came Chester, a lovable shepherd mix. Chester is Connor’s rescue dog and he brings a lot of joy and tenderness to his new master.

Chester’s adoption was facilitated through the Alberta Animal Rescue Crew.

We give to the things that have our hearts, and Chester plus Alberta Animal Rescue Crew have Connor’s! This is where our first Saturn comes in: Connor donated the proceeds from two separate vehicles to the animal rescue that united him and his beloved pooch. How did that add up, you may ask? His vehicle donations resulted in over $1300.00 to the charity! A modest outcome of around $200.00 was earned for his ’01 Saturn when her transmission gave out. Then, the donation was beefed up with just over $1000.00 coming from the auctioning of his SUV.

Calgary donor’s Saturn | From bust to boom

Fast forward to this summer when we heard a common distress call,

“I had my Saturn in to (the shop) today for an oil change and a diagnostic for my Service Engine Soon light that recently appeared on my dashboard. Upon their diagnostic check, there was too much work that needed to be done to get the car safe to drive.

When I went to pick up my car this afternoon, after paying $420.00 for their services, I went to exit the parking lot, and my back rear brake line burst. I was able to pull out of the lot and immediately turned into what turned out to be shop’s detailing lot. I coasted into a parking spot.”

Now, our caller was in a pickle: the spot she’d coasted to was in a shared lot with a hotel. The Saturn needed a pick up. And fast!

“I would like to know if you can tow my car either tomorrow or the day after? You can give me a phone call at home, or send an email.”

Request received and responded to: Absolutely! The outstanding agents that serve in the Calgary area were right on it. Donor served. Charity of choice set to receive the gift!

And how did it all go for the donor?

“Your staff is amazing. Keep up the great work you do.”

~ C.K.

Saturn picked up two ways in Ontario

Whether your Saturn is re-sold or recycled, you can be sure of making a helpful impact for the charity you love.

One Distress Centre Ottawa donor in Ontario wrote,

It is suitable for Recycling. There are new parts on it, 1 year old winter tires. It is too old to invest in a new exhaust system. The car has not been on the road for a year.

No problem! Running, or not, donated cars, trucks, SUVs, and vans add up to big donation dollars for charities like the DCO. Just like that, the Distress Centre donor was set up with their free tow. They will receive their tax receipt in the next week, or two.

An Ontario Saturn Vue donor offered some reassuring feedback,

“The whole operation was painless.”

I mean, sometimes painless is all we need, right? You can expect speedy, cheerful, free donor support whenever you gift a charity with your vehicle. We sure do hope that will be painless every time!

Singing Saturn donors praises

Honour a beloved pet. Help the cause you care about. Retire an old cars; donate a vehicle that can be re-sold. The tried-and-true process here will serve you, whatever your motivation.

Connor’s generosity of spirit and his quiet diligence in doing good are reflected in vehicle donations in every province in Canada! 

Our Saturn donors will keep right on doing the good that they do. We will be right here, ready to serve them with gratitude! Moreover, we will keep the process simple, quick, and free for them.

Further to that, there is no cost to the charity you champion. Any and all of them will be able to continue the work(s) that only they can do. As our supervisor, Kirsten, said just this week, “We’re just here to help keep the wheels on the bus and the lights on!”

Help your caring cause today!

In just a few easy steps you’ll be on your way to turning your Saturn (running, or not) into donation dollars. First, click the button below. In a few minutes we’ll have your donation form. Next, you’ll get a call to set up your free tow. Then? You just sit back and wait for your tax receipt!

We look forward to serving you!

Understanding vehicle donation in Canada

If you ask us, the best charity to donate a car to is…well…ANY charity that you love! No exaggeration, you can select any registered Canadian charity to receive your vehicle donation. It really is your choice!

A bit of clarification:

When you donate a van, truck, SUV, car, or motorcycle, the charity does not actually touch that vehicle.

There is a very good reason for that:

Charities are best served by monetary gifts. They need our dollars and cents. By turning your Dodge into ducats, your Subaru into simoleans, and your Beamer into bucks, we ensure the charity is not left wrangling a Gift in Kind.

The charity does not need to manage any costs or effort in towing, selling, or scrapping. They do not even need to touch the paperwork! That’s all taken of by ourselves, our supporting agents, and CanadaHelps!

Your donated vehicle will be re-sold or recycled. The net proceeds from that process will be disbursed to your chosen charity. You then receive a tax receipt.

But back to the best charity to donate a car to…

That said, you came here looking for the WHO of car donation, not the how!

Donate a Car Canada has been around for over two decades. When we began offering this service to charities we served just a handful. At the time, there was only one similar program in all of Canada, and it earned donations for just one charity.

Over time, we have formed partnerships with thousands of charities. Not seeing the charity you love on our list? Visit CanadaHelps for a comprehensive list of every Canadian charity you can imagine…and more!

The process we apply for donated vehicles is the same for every charity. The value of metal and processing costs are different in every province. That can impact the dollar value of your donation. Those outcomes are about the car and steel industry. The charities themselves do not have any control over how well a car will perform in the market. They are, however, so grateful for every dollar donation that comes from this unique way of donating to their work!

Making the choice that makes sense for you

When folks are donating a vehicle, the charity considerations often focus in on

• Issues that have affected them and their loved ones.
• Health-related charities.
• Critters! Pets, Canadian wildlife, rescues, and shelters!
• Community-based efforts: this can be anything from seniors to special needs to caring for a local park.
• First responders, faith-based charities, and the arts are all up for your choice, too!

Five star car donation reviews say it all

We love our work! Our car donation reviews reflect that care. For over ten years we have been serving Canadian causes. Donors like you have given thousands of cars, trucks, vans, SUVs, and motorcycles. You have donated boats and snowmobiles, too. Motorized scooters and wheelchairs? Why not!

Car donation reviews are an exciting way for us to gauge how service is landing with donors like you. The kind of care the donor received is immediately apparent. We aim for 100% satisfaction! Moreover, has the charity received a sturdy monetary donation? Then we have done the work well!

Curious to hear more? Get a sense of what the donation experience is really like by checking out our website testimonials and Google Reviews .

A little donor care goes a long way

Here’ what one donor had to offer in response to her Grand Am donation experience,

“I definitely found the donation of my car experience to be very positive
and I am already recommending it to others. The process was very efficient
and quick. The Online form was easy to understand and complete and upon
submitting it, I received an email response very quickly, which clearly
outlined the process.

Within a day or two, I received a call from your Agent, a very pleasant
man, who said the tow truck driver would phone me the following morning. As
promised, I received the call the next morning and was given a time frame
for that afternoon that my car would be picked up. The tow truck driver
arrived in a timely manner, was friendly and polite and although it was
pouring rain, he remained cheerful, which I appreciated. He removed the
license plates for me, hooked my car up, took care of the paperwork and
drove off with my car in tow.

It’s hard to believe that everything went as smoothly as was outlined on
the website, in the emails and phone calls I received. I was pleased with
everything and I am so happy that this is the organization I selected. I
had googled ‘How to donate a car to charity,’ and DONATE A CAR CANADA stood
out as a very credible website and I am so incredibly impressed and
thankful that this all worked out so well. Thank you so much!”

Beetle donors give – right across Canada

Scrap. Re-sale. Auction ready. We have seen ’em all! VW Beetle donors have been extending the legacy of their beloved cars for over two decades.

In the last few months,

• Kidney Cancer Canada received $589.75 from a Calgary VW Beetle donor.

We have other VW donors working with us this Spring, too!

A rare Beetle…just for the love of purple

Is it really worth it to donate a car in Ontario?

Yes, yes, yes it is! Ontario car, truck, SUV, van, and motorcycle donors raise hundreds of thousands of dollars for charity each year. Your four-wheeled wonder can make such a difference!

We may recycle your car: this results in a flat-rate donation determined by what our agent will pay for the vehicle. This can earn your charity hundreds of dollars.

Whenever we can, we have our agents re-sell donated vehicles. This ensures that the charity can receive a gift of thousands of dollars if the car has that kind of value.

Whatever your cause, we are here to serve.

Whatever your vehicle, we will do all we can to assist. Scrap cars, junk cars, running-like-a-wonder cars — donate a car in Ontario and make a difference for the cause you love today!
