Today, breast cancer remains a serious illness for Americans. Even with advances in early detection and treatment, the disease still takes lives. And patients who are still fighting need ongoing care and assistance during treatment.

That's why Breast Cancer Car Donations exists. We operate as an online vehicle donation platform that supports IRS-certified 501(c)3 nonprofit organizations that provide cancer care and assistance.

We invite you to join our Joliet, Illinois, car donations program to improve the lives of people affected by breast cancer.

When you donate a qualifying vehicle, you help to fund programs that support breast cancer patients in your local area. We sell donated vehicles at auction and send the proceeds to our charity partners.

Our charity partners use the funds to provide services like these:

  • Financial assistance to uninsured and underserved women (covering expenses including oncology consultation and services, outpatient medication, surgery, and hospital bills);
  • Linking patients to facilities that provide accessible resources and a wide range of breast health services;
  • Funding ongoing research on breast cancer prevention, screening, diagnosis, and treatment;
  • Organizing fundraisers and outreach events for the benefit of patients;
  • Promoting public awareness on the importance of early screening and diagnostic tests.

What Perks Do I Receive as a Donor?

We believe donating should always be rewarding. That's why our program offers real benefits to donors. Here are a few of them:

  • A handsome tax write-off;
  • Free vehicle removal;
  • No paperwork on your part;
  • Stop spending huge bucks for your vehicle's repair, maintenance, and insurance coverage;
  • Avoid the hassles and costs of selling a used vehicle yourself;
  • Free up space in your garage or driveway;
  • Team up with reputable cancer organizations;
  • Feel satisfied knowing that your donation will help save lives in your community.

How Does the Donation Process Work?

What sets our program apart is how quick and simple the donation process is. Participating in our Joliet, Illinois car donations program takes only a few minutes of your time.

Here's a quick overview of our three-step donation process:

  1. Reach out to us.
    You can contact us in one of two ways: by calling (866) 540-5069 or by filling out our online donation form. When you reach out, we'll request basic details about your vehicle, including its year, mileage, make, model, condition, and VIN. We'll also ask whether you have the vehicle's title.
  2. We tow your vehicle.
    Once we confirm that your vehicle qualifies, we'll ask for a date and time that works best for you. We'll then arrange a free pickup at your location. Before the tow truck driver leaves with your vehicle, you'll receive a towing receipt. This receipt releases you from responsibility for the vehicle and allows you to cancel your DMV registration and insurance coverage.
  3. You receive your tax-deductible receipt.
    We'll repair and prepare your vehicle before sending it to one of the auction houses in our network. Within 30 days after the sale, we'll send you your tax-deductible sales receipt. You can use this receipt when you itemize your deductions on your federal income tax return.
