As a nonprofit vehicle donation program, we help generate funding for programs that provide breast cancer screening, treatment resources, patient care, and research. Whether your vehicle has been sitting in the garage for years or you simply no longer need it, our team makes the donation process simple from beginning to end.
Why Donate Your Vehicle in Wisconsin?
A vehicle donation helps more than just the person receiving care. The proceeds from every donated vehicle help support breast cancer programs that serve communities throughout Wisconsin and across the country. Your gift helps expand access to screening services, treatment resources, education, and ongoing research.
Donating is also much easier than selling a vehicle yourself. You avoid creating listings, meeting buyers, negotiating prices, and paying for repairs. At the same time, you clear valuable space from your garage or driveway and help keep usable vehicles and parts out of landfills through responsible resale or recycling.
How To Donate Your Car in Wisconsin
Our process is designed to be fast and easy.
- Step 1
Call us or complete our online donation form with basic information about your vehicle. - Step 2
Gather your title, keys if available, and basic ownership documents. We accept many vehicles whether they run or not. - Step 3
Schedule your free pickup at a convenient time. Our towing partners will collect your vehicle and provide the necessary paperwork. - Step 4
Sign the title as instructed, complete any required title transfer paperwork, and notify the Wisconsin DMV after your donation to update your ownership records.
For additional guidance, we also recommend downloading our title transfer checklist before your scheduled pickup.
Accepted Vehicles for Vehicle Donation
We gladly accept many different types of vehicles, including:
- Cars
- Trucks
- SUVs
- Boats
- RVs
- Motorcycles
Many damaged or nonrunning vehicles also qualify. We may also accept specialty vehicles such as farm equipment, golf carts, trailers, and certain recreational vehicles. If you're unsure whether your vehicle qualifies, simply contact our team for assistance.
How Do Tax Deductions Work?
After your donated vehicle is sold, we'll send you an IRS tax deductible receipt for your records. This documentation helps you determine your potential deduction when filing your federal income taxes.
Depending on IRS guidelines, your deduction may be based on your vehicle's sale price or applicable fair market value rules. Keep your donation paperwork with your tax records and consult a qualified tax professional if you have questions about your individual tax situation.
How Your Vehicle Donation Funds Breast Cancer Care
The proceeds from vehicle sales help support programs that provide breast cancer screening, treatment resources, patient support, and research. Every donation contributes to services that improve access to care and help families facing a difficult diagnosis.
One Wisconsin donor shared that donating an older SUV was much easier than trying to sell it privately. Instead of spending weeks looking for a buyer, they completed the donation in just a few simple steps and appreciated knowing their unused vehicle would help others.
