Welcome to the Caritas for Children Donate a Car Program, the FREE and easy service to donate a car, van, truck, or motorcycle. By donating your vehicle, you are helping Caritas for Children, a non-profit organization, dedicated to improving the lives of those children who are either orphaned or living in orphanages in underdeveloped countries.
Your vehicle needs to be whole and ideally should be in working condition.
In certain circumstances we can accept vehicles that are not in working order, please contact us at
888-CARITAS with details.
We can make your donate a car process as quick and convenient as possible for you. We will provide free, fast and reliable towing from any location in the continental USA.
The process is quite simple…4 Steps!
Step 1- Contact a CARITAS Representative at 1-888-227-4827
*We are currently developing a new Donate-a-car online form to serve our donors better. This form will be completed soon. We apologize for any inconvenience.
Step 2- The donor receives a donor packet from CARITAS
Step 3- CARITAS arranges for the pickup of your vehicle as soon as the donor packet is received by us here at CARITAS
Step 4- CARITAS sends you a letter stating what the vehicle sold for. **
**This is the amount used for tax purposes. If a vehicle sells for under $500USD the donor is able to claim up to $500USD for the donation. If the vehicle sells for above $500USD the donor is able to claim the net sale amount for the vehicle, provided by CARITAS. This information is listed in greater detail on the IRS’S Web Site.
All that is required from you, the donor, is to complete the simple documents available from this page and send them, together with the vehicle's title to:
