When you hand over your old and unwanted car to us at Breast Cancer Car Donations through our Peoria, Illinois car donations program, you will literally be helping save lives!

We will transform your clunker into a vital fund-generating tool for our IRS-certified 501(c)3 nonprofit organization partners. Like us, these nonprofits work tirelessly to extend life-saving assistance to breast cancer-stricken individuals who are fighting for their lives every single day.

We auction off all vehicles donated to us and use the proceeds to help fund the comprehensive breast health services that our nonprofit partners provide to all individuals who need them, particularly those who are uninsured and underprivileged. The funding they get from the donations we receive enables them to deliver the following services:

• Connect or refer patients to local medical facilities that offer accessible breast health resources and assistance programs;
• Provide financial aid to patients who are unable to afford the costs of screening and treatment;
• Raise public awareness on the significance of breast cancer screening and prevention;
• Host fundraising events for the benefit of breast cancer patients;
• Support research on breast cancer cure

Our Quick and Effortless Donation Process

At Breast Cancer Car Donations, we make everything simple and easy for our donors. We don’t want you to go through a complicated donation process that would consume so much of your time and effort. You only need to spend a few minutes of your time to make a contribution to our Peoria, Illinois car donations program.

Here’s our quick three-step donation guide:

1. Contact us.

Once you’ve decided to donate a vehicle to charity, reach out to us by either calling us at 866-540-5069 or by filling out our online donation form. Tell us a few basic details about the vehicle you’re donating as well as your personal contact information.

2. Schedule your vehicle pickup.

After verifying the information you shared with us, we’ll call you back to arrange your vehicle’s FREE pickup and towing. Tell us the most convenient date, time, and place for handing over your vehicle to us. We’ll then coordinate with a licensed towing company to collect your vehicle. If you can’t be around during the time of the pickup, that’s alright. However, make sure that your car’s title and keys are in a conspicuous location inside the vehicle so our driver can easily pick them up.

Before we collect your vehicle, we will issue you a towing receipt. This document will enable you to de-register your vehicle at the local DMV and cancel its insurance coverage.

3. Get your tax-deductible receipt.

We’ll fix and polish your vehicle before sending it to one of the best auction houses in our network. We’ll make sure that your vehicle is sold at its highest possible price so you can claim a maximized tax write-off. Expect a 100-percent tax-deductible sales receipt in your mailbox within 30 days after your vehicle is sold. You can present this receipt to your local IRS to claim your tax deduction when you file your itemized federal income tax return in the next tax season.

Learn More About Peoria

Located in central Illinois, Peoria is known as an industrial trade city. This is because it’s situated along the Illinois River. It boasts beautiful, old architecture, a vibrant riverfront and historic landmarks. It also has some local cancer treatment centers. These include Illinois CancerCare on N Wood Sage Rd.; UnityPoint Health – Methodist Cancer Support Services on Main St.; and OSF Saint Francis Medical Center on NE Glen Oak Ave.

Fortunately, thanks to better treatment and early detection methods, the mortality rate for this disease has declined since the 1990s. The cancer death rate among young individuals is rare; it’s known to affect mostly the elderly population. For example, in 2018, age groups with the most cancer death rates in Peoria were 65-74, 75-84 and 85-plus.
