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

Absolutely! Saskatchewan car, truck, SUV, van, and motorcycle donors raise thousands of dollars for Canadian causes each year. Your four-wheeled scrapper can make such a difference! A car in working order? Well…read on…

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 cars. 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.

Canadian women by the numbers

As a woman of a certain age, I find myself alternately perplexed, appalled, and inspired by today’s news. At this moment, there are women risking their lives to have the freedom to choose what to do with their religious head coverings. Their lives. They are risking their lives for rights that I don’t even need to think about defending for myself.

Closer to our borders, we have seen reproductive health laws torn down and clinic doors closed. There are young women pleading for the care of our planet. There are women, young and old, fleeing from their war-threatened homes.

Canadian women and girls aren’t getting a pass on cruelty, violence, or coercive control. It can look a little different here. In fact, it can be a invisible here. It takes the shape of physical, financial, spiritual, reproductive, and sexual danger. These kinds of violence (and more) against women happen behind closed doors and are typically dealt by the hand of an intimate partner or loved one.

Here’s how our federal government is addressing this currently:

Joint Declaration for a Canada free of Gender-based violence

• Everyone has the right to live free from violence;
• Many people in Canada have violence committed against them and continue to experience violence every day because of their gender, gender identity, gender expression, or how their gender is perceived by others;
• This form of violence constitutes gender-based violence, and it is one of the most pervasive, deadly and deeply rooted human rights violations. Gender-based violence is a major barrier to the expression of individual freedom and societal and collective development;
• The negative effects of gender-based violence reach far beyond the individuals who have this violence committed against them. Violence can have long-lasting and negative health, social and economic effects that span generations, often leading to cycles of violence and abuse within families, and sometimes whole communities;
• While violence affects people of all genders, ages, religions, cultures, ethnicities, geographic locations, and socio-economic backgrounds, some populations are more at risk of experiencing violence because of historical and ongoing oppressions, such as sexism, homophobia, transphobia, colonialism, ageism, classism, racism, ableism;
• To this day, women and girls continue to be the primary victims and survivors of gender-based violence;
• Indigenous women; Black and racialized women; non-binary, gender diverse and LGBTQ and Two-Spirit people; those living in northern, rural, and remote communities; those with disabilities; non-status and temporary status migrants, immigrants and refugees; children and youth; and seniors experience high rates of gender-based violence. The intersection of any two or more identity factors compounds a person’s risk and vulnerability to violence;
• Gender-based violence is a complex and multifaceted issue that requires action by all governments according to their respective responsibilities, as well as cross-sector collaboration…

The ongoing commitment:

“We, the Federal, Provincial and Territorial Ministers responsible for the Status of Women acknowledge the urgency to address the multiple, complex and deeply rooted factors that contribute to gender-based violence. We commit to continue to work together and with other departments, agencies and ministries, partners, stakeholders, experts, survivors, families and people with lived experience to create a Canada free of gender-based violence, where victims, survivors and their families are supported no matter where they live. More than ever, there is a strong need to prevent and address gender-based violence in our country.”

We are the change makers needed

Whatever our political tilt, this is a care we can all get behind! Every moment we live as persons of inclusion, equality, and affirmation counts! Volunteer, create, and have meaningful conversations. Be aware. Stay informed. The way that we think and learn and talk about these things really matters.

There are so many devoted and caring workers and charities rolling up their sleeves to move the needle on creating a Canada free of gender-based violence!

Is it worth it to donate my car in Saskatchewan?

It really is! Saskatchewan car, truck, SUV, van, and motorcycle donors raise thousands of dollars for Canadian causes each year. Your vehicle has donation dollar value even if it’s a scrap car.

When we recycle your car the charity gets 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 cooperating agents re-sell donated units. This makes it possible for the charity to receive a gift of thousands of dollars depending on the year, make, model, and condition of the vehicle.
