Car Donation Programs
Your most important decision when beginning a car donation fundraising program is often also one of your first: who are you going to choose to handle your donated cars? You’ll find a wide range of fees on services among the companies that offer to take on your donation program.
We’ve simplified it. We earn 10% of the gross sale of a donated vehicle.
Bottom line: this means more money for your organization.
Charity Development’s Work, Your Fundraising
Though you are a not-for-profit, we think you’ll want to make as much money for your charity as possible from each donation. We’re a fundraising business: we’re transparent about our motives. We work hard to make our 10% as high as possible. Of course, the higher our 10%, the higher your dollar donation is, too. We’re a team to help in your fundraising goals and to maximize your return on donation.
Our Car Donation Process is Different
What makes us different? Each and every car donation that Charity Development processes is individually screened to choose the best possible sales avenue. And this sets us apart. We don’t simply refer every car to auction; if you can sell a car for more through other avenues, we do. Our process is a six-step system. Here’s how Charity Development works for you:
Auto And Vehicle Marketing
Car donations have proven over and over again to be a highly fruitful avenue for charity organizations, but they present huge challenges, too. Our experience has taught us that most organizations, while deeply informed in their own area – health care, research, social services, and others – are simply not experts in the automobile market.
We are experienced in vehicle sales marketing and the auto recycling industry.
- We know the value of almost all vehicles in today’s market.
- We stay on top of auto production trends.
- We know the auto, truck and recreational vehicle sales industry.
When we set a value on a car, we know that’s what it should bring you as a gross sale. The vehicle resale and recycle industries are ever-changing, with values affected by commodities markets. We keep pace with it, so you can count on us to know the best value and the best market for all vehicle donations.
Fundraising Consulting Services
We can take on your entire car donation fundraising program, or we can share our expertise with you, educating the people in your organization on car donation campaigns.
We’re educators at heart, and we want non-profit organizations to know as much about the car donation fundraising industry as they can. Ask us anything about running a car donation fundraising program; we’ll answer.
Behind every vehicle donation handled by Charity Development is integrity and know-how, as well as respect for your charity’s goals.
