Betty White’s legacy

One life’s Goodness is pretty tricky to measure. Who we are, unseen and in secret, is complex and sweet. Some of us shine so brightly on the tiny stage of an “ordinary” life. Others have a reach that inspires ten people…or ten thousand…or ten million.

What Betty White would wish to be truly known for will be the stuff of wondering for awhile. Her sparkle and sass are invitation to hope and irreverent joy. We’ll have the happy luck of being influenced by her just as long as we can click a “Watch Now” button on this viewing platform, or that.

We are so excited to share in her vibrant Generosity for a wee while longer! We’re here to come alongside you as you participate in the Betty White Challenge. How? By making it so-very-easy to donate your unused or unwanted vehicle on behalf of the animal cause of your choice! Watch our socials all week long to get a glimpse at the dozens of charities you can aid in honor of Betty.

Serving animal charities for over two decades

Canadians love (love!) their local shelters, humane societies, and SPCAs. We process hundreds of vehicle donations for cats, dogs, rabbits, and birds every year, all year long. In fact, our role in getting your vehicle donation dollars to charity has been a wonderful learning experience for us.

Who knew there were works like the Donkey Sanctuary of Canada and Little OinkBank Pig Sanctuary to give to? Or, have you heard of Yamnuska Wolfdog Sanctuary? Did you know there’s a charity dedicated to Beagles in Newfoundland & Labrador? Beagle Paws is Canada’s largest Beagle Rescue organization. They have chapters in Alberta, Newfoundland, and on Vancouver Island.

The Toronto Humane Society vehicle donors have given$95,000.00 since THS partnered with us.

In 2021, forty-one (41!) car, truck, SUV, van, and motorcycle donors have selected the Winnipeg Humane Society for their gifts.

The BC SPCA and Regina Humane Society have received over $173,000.00 and $17,000.00 respectively from Canadian vehicle donations!

Betty may not have seen this coming?

Betty White may not have envisioned a legacy of car donations in her honor! How delighted we are that her laughing, joyful reach might extend to helping homeless, aging, vulnerable critters in this way.

Your animal care cause will be helped by your unused or unwanted car. We’ll turn your truck, SUV, van, or motorcycle into cash for those critters, too!

Your local shelter does not pay for this service in any way. Your tow will be free, and you’ll receive a tax receipt to claim next year. The donation form usually takes less than 10 minutes. You can do that online, or give us a call (1-877-250-4904). We’re here to serve.

Manitoba car donors make a difference

We have been working alongside Manitoba car, truck, van, SUV, and motorcycle donors for almost 15 years! A donor recently wondered, “When I donate my car in Manitoba, can it go to a hospital charity?” And, of course, the answer is yes!

Her gift resulted in a $2914.25 donation to the Children’s Hospital Foundation of Manitoba!

Looking to donate a car in Manitoba? Here’s how…

Your charity of choice (you read that right: you can choose any Canadian charity) will never pay a penny for this care. And for you? Well, it just doesn’t get any easier:

1. Click below, or call (1-877-250-4904)
2. Fill in the quick information form (this is where you’ll choose your Manitoba charity, too)
3. Take a call from the towing agent and hand over the car, truck, van, SUV, or motorcycle

Leave the rest to our crew here at Donate a Car!

How do I select my charity?

When you fill in your vehicle information form you will easily see our drop-down list of charities. You can pick from across the country. Or, if you wish, select a cause right from your home province!

If you would like to explore charity options before you get started, our charities page can help. Another option? Spend some time on the CanadaHelps website. Their list of Canadian charities is vast — and we are able to serve them all!

Curious about who we’re partnered with in Manitoba? Here are just a few of the heartworks you can gift with your unused/unwanted vehicle jalopy:

Is it really worth it to donate my car in Manitoba?

Absolutely! Manitoba car, truck, SUV, van, and motorcycle donors raise thousands of dollars for Canadian causes each year. From scrap-ready to re-sale worthy, your vehicle has donation dollar value.

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 cooperating agents re-sell donated units. This ensures that the charity can receive a gift of thousands of dollars depending on the year, make, model, and condition of the vehicle.

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 Manitoba and make a difference for the cause you love today!

The Winnipeg Humane Society

Winnipeg Humane Society’s Mission is to protect animals from suffering and to promote their welfare and dignity. They do this via a broad work of addressing issues of both animal care, and earth care. Offering support for fosters, adoptions, and community efforts helps them get it all done!

The Winnipeg Humane Society believes in taking a stand against animal cruelty, promoting humanely produced foods, and working with the community to combat Winnipeg’s cat overpopulation problem.

Vehicle donor gifts the critters – x3!

The first time we “met” our repeat WHS vehicle donor was back in 2016. They donated their recycle-ready Grand Am. Then, their Uplander donation was the second of three gifts to their beloved animal charity in 2017. The donor let us know, “‘Service was awesome!” And an ’06 G5 was gifted on behalf of the Winnipeg Humane Society in 2020. That’s a whole lot of four-wheeled Goodness on behalf of the WHS!

So many ways to give

We make vehicle donation really easy here. When we say, “As easy as 1-2-3!” our donors (repeat, or one time only) will tell you that it really is! Animal care charities like the Winnipeg Humane Society are many on our charity list! These are causes that car, truck, rv, boat, and motorcycle donors get behind. Every day.

Our animal charities have many options for giving. If you do not have an unused/unwanted vehicle ready to go, consider how you might help in other ways.

For example, the WHS welcomes unique gifts! Did you know you can donate stock, or Airmiles? You can make a one-time, special occasion donation. You can even purchase a WHS personalized license plate!

Whatever your cause

We’re here to support you in giving to any cause that you love. We work on behalf of everything from wildlife and domestic animal concerns to local theatre. Illness and marginalized communities — we process vehicle donations for them! We will come alongside you in your wish to gift a faith-based charity. Or, as with one recent donor who sincerely requested that we ensure a charity free of any such affiliation, we honor your need to give without such attachment.

Your vehicle. Your charity. Feel 100% about process (from data entry to free tow to tax receipt). Feel 100% about your gifts landing spot.
