Do you have an unwanted car that’s taking up space? You might be wondering what to do with it, especially as we’re entering the cold winter months. After all, it’s no fun to plow or shovel snow around a car that’s just sitting in your driveway. Thankfully, there is a solution: Donate your car to Goodwill!
Here are some great reasons to donate your car to Ohio Valley Goodwill this winter:
Upgrade your vehicle before the snow arrives
If your current car isn’t well-suited for snowy and icy roads, it could be time to replace it with something that’s more reliable. Donate your car to Goodwill and free up extra space in your garage for a new-to-you vehicle!
Make someone’s holiday
When you donate a vehicle to Ohio Valley Goodwill, it will be resold in our in-house auto auction right here in Cincinnati. Someone in your community might be looking for the exact vehicle that you don’t want anymore! By donating your car, you’re giving it a new life with a new owner.
Create jobs in your community
Donating your car to Goodwill will also further our mission to change lives through the power of work! That’s because the proceeds from our auto auction are used to help fund life-changing job training and employment services for individuals with disabilities and our nation’s veterans. When you choose to donate a car to Goodwill, you can be confident that the money raised will stay in your community and help people find and obtain meaningful employment.
