Taking part in our Clearwater, Florida vehicle donation program is important. It's a big step toward improving and saving lives affected by breast cancer in this city.
Known as an ideal travel destination, Clearwater, Florida offers miles of sugar white sand, crystal clear water and all the best attractions of living in a thriving beach community. Residents love having easy access to outdoor recreation, sporting, music and food, as well as being just 22 miles from big-city Tampa. Yet amidst the sun-seeking beach-goers are many fighting the challenges of breast cancer. The community is home to Powell Cancer Center, West Florida Radiation Therapy and BayCare. When you donate a vehicle, you do something to help those battling cancer in this area.
At Breast Cancer Car Donations, we support programs that help with breast cancer screening, diagnosis and treatment through car donations. Screening is the key to detection and treatment. If breast cancer is detected early enough in a patient, the chances of treatment and recovery are greatly enhanced.
While early detection, increased awareness, and better treatments are integral to driving down breast cancer numbers, many patients still don't have adequate support for the treatment of patients.
When you join with our auto donation program, you offer hope and solutions to the Clearwater breast cancer community. With your help, our nonprofit organization partners are better equipped to serve more breast cancer patients in need and pursue their research for more effective ways to fight this devastating disease.
We serve the entire state of Florida, including (but not limited to) nearby communities such as Sarasota.

How Do I Donate My Car?
When you champion a purpose in Clearwater, Florida, the steps are simple! The easy steps are:
- Get in touch with us either by filling out our online donation form or calling us at (866) 540-5069. Tell us about the details of your vehicle -- year purchased, model, and brand -- and your personal contact information as well so we can get back to you.
- After we receive your request and process the information you provided us, you can schedule the fast and free pick-up of your vehicle at the date, time, and place of your convenience. We will arrange for a local towing company to pick up your vehicle, and you don't have to be present during towing. You'll receive a towing receipt that releases you from all liabilities on your car, giving you the right to cancel and stop paying for your car insurance and registration.
- Lastly, you will receive your IRS tax-deductible receipt in the mail after your vehicle is sold at auction. You'll need the receipt to support your top tax deduction claim when filing your federal tax return. You can get a significant tax deduction from your donation. If your vehicle's selling price is $500 or less, you may claim either the selling price or the fair market value of your car, whichever is higher, as your tax deduction. On the other hand, if your car fetches a price higher than $500, you may claim that exact amount as your tax deduction. All proceeds go to helping those with breast cancer and continuing the fight against the disease.
Can I Donate a Car That Doesn't Run?
Yes, you can donate a vehicle even if it is no longer running. Breast Cancer Car Donations accepts cars in nearly any condition, whether they have mechanical problems, high mileage, or simply cannot start. By contributing your nonworking vehicle, you save yourself the hassle of repairs or sales while still making a meaningful difference for breast cancer patients and their families.
Do I Need the Title to Donate My Car?
In most cases, you will need to provide your vehicle title to complete the donation process. If you cannot locate it, Breast Cancer Car Donations can often guide you through the steps to request a replacement from your local DMV. Having the title ensures a smooth transfer of ownership, protecting both you and the organization.
How Do I Prepare My Car for Donation?
Preparing your car is simple and takes only a few steps. Remove your personal belongings, gather your keys and title, and check that you have taken out any important documents. There is no need to make repairs or clean the vehicle thoroughly. Once it is ready, Breast Cancer Car Donations will arrange a convenient pickup at no cost to you.
What Are the Tax Benefits of Donating?
When you donate, you may qualify for a tax deduction based on the sale value of your vehicle. After your car is picked up and sold, you will receive a tax-deductible receipt for use when filing your return. This benefit allows you to support breast cancer programs while also reducing your taxable income.
