Your Car Could Save A Life — Donate Your Unwanted Vehicle To The American Cancer Society


Donate Your Unwanted Vehicle To
The American Cancer Society


AUSTIN The end of the year is right around the corner. And for many people, part of wrapping up 2006 means looking for last-minute tax deductions.


The American Cancer Society would like to remind Texans of an opportunity that may not only be of help to taxpayers and their 2006 tax deductions, but will also raise critical funds needed to help the American Cancer Society achieve its mission.


The American Cancer Society’s Vehicle Donation Program, a year-round fundraiser for the Society, allows the public to donate a used car, truck, van, motorcycle, recreational vehicle or boat to the American Cancer Society. In turn, the vehicle is auctioned and the proceeds help fund cancer-fighting programs and lifesaving research. By donating unwanted vehicles to the American Cancer Society by Dec. 31, 2006, individuals can take the allowed deduction on this year’s taxes. Donors are encouraged to consult their tax advisor for details.


There is no “catch” to this program. The vehicle does not have to run. The Society only requires that the vehicle have inflated tires and all vital parts in place. To add to the simplicity of the program, the American Cancer Society arranges for the vehicle to be picked up at no charge to the donor.


To donate, call the American Cancer Society at 1-877-999-CARS (2277) and request the donation of one’s vehicle. Or visit <cancer.org/donatemycar> for more information.


The American Cancer Society is the nationwide, community-based, voluntary health organization dedicated to eliminating cancer as a major health problem by preventing cancer, saving lives, and diminishing suffering from cancer through research, education, advocacy and service.
