Did you know that by donating your car in Fresno, you can help those afflicted with breast cancer to have a better chance of surviving the disease? Donating an old car that you don’t use can free you from being tied down to a vehicle that you don’t need. It will also give good opportunities for treatment (and so much more) to those who are battling breast cancer. Sounds good, right?

Who We Are and What We Do

We at Breast Cancer Car Donations work in partnership with certified 501(c)3 nonprofit organizations. These partners are committed to providing accessible and comprehensive breast health services across the United States. Because we want our partners to focus on these life-saving programs, we support their fundraising efforts through our breast cancer vehicle donation program.

The proceeds of every car donation in Fresno, CA will automatically be used for funding breast cancer programs that do the following:

• Raise public awareness on the nature of breast cancer, focusing on disease prevention through early detection;
• Provide financial assistance to aid in the screening, diagnosis, and treatment for those who are uninsured and underserved;
• Utilize link and referral systems that allow free access to local resources, services, and information that are ethnically and linguistically customized according to the needs of the individual.

How to Donate a Car for Charity

Is your vehicle the automotive equivalent of a senior citizen? We want you to have the best giving experience. That’s why we came up with a donation process that would help you get rid of your unwanted vehicle in less than 15 minutes. Here’s how it works:

• Reach out to us.

You can fill out our online donation form, or you can call us at 866-540-5069. Give us your contact information and a few basic details about the vehicle you’re donating.

• Schedule your vehicle’s FREE pickup.

You heard us right – we will tow your vehicle away for free! Just tell us when and where you’d want us to pick it up, and we’ get the job done. You don’t even have to be present when we haul your car away!

• Receive your IRS tax receipt.

We work with certified 501(c)3 non-profit organizations and as such your car donation automatically qualifies you to get  once you itemize your deductions. After your vehicle is sold, we’ll send you a sales receipt or IRS form that you would use to file your taxes.

FAQs

How can I prepare my vehicle for donation to Breast Cancer Car Donations?

When you’re ready to provide a car donation for cancer, you can visit the local DMV to prepare. First, you can return the license plates and transfer the automobile’s title to the organization. Additionally, you can cancel the car insurance and registration. Doing so frees you from any liabilities and unnecessary responsibilities.

Your generous contribution is a meaningful way to support a worthy cause. The funds from your auctioned car will be given to our partner nonprofits that are dedicated to helping those affected by this disease.

What steps are involved in returning my license plates to the DMV when donating my vehicle to charity?

It’s important to provide the DMV with your license plates when you make a cancer auto donation. In some cases, you may be able to keep your plates. However, donors typically need to surrender them, although it varies from state to state. Moreover, you’ll need to transfer the car’s title by completing a form. You can visit the local DMV in Fresno, which is situated at 655 W Olive Avenue.

Why is it important to clean my car before donating it?

Cleaning an automobile before giving it to a charity is respectful. It also ensures that you don’t leave any personal items behind. Be sure to clean thoroughly and don’t forget to check the glove compartment and seats for any belongings.

What steps should I take regarding a vehicle’s registration and insurance when donating a car to charity?

When donating your car to a nonprofit organization such as Breast Cancer Car Donations, it’s important to follow a few steps. For instance, be sure to cancel the automobile’s registration as soon as you give it away. Donors can cancel online or in-person at their local DMV. Keep in mind that you may receive a partial refund for the remaining unregistered period.

Moreover, don’t forget to cancel your vehicle insurance after transferring the title. In other words, you’ll be covered in case the car is damaged, but you’ll avoid ongoing insurance costs. We serve the entire area, including nearby Bakersfield, Sacramento, San Jose and more.
