As a social service program

Individuals living in poverty often have trouble obtaining vehicles. Difficulty finding reliable, affordable transportation adds to the burden of poverty, and your donation may provide transportation to someone allowing them the dignity of keeping a job to support their family.

The services of the Society of St. Vincent de Paul routinely involve “one-on-one” meetings with those people in situations that most other social service delivery systems do not address. Also unique is the Society’s attitude of flexibility in charity—no service to those in need is outside the scope of the Society’s response. This flexibility and simplicity have resulted in arguably the most cost-effective system of charity and charitable service delivery in the world.

The SVDP National Vehicle Donation Program offers some distinct advantages:

• Used car donations may be turned into money to provide critical items such as food, shelter, housing, care for the elderly, or medicine.

• Your goodwill, tax deductible donation is tied directly to your location. That means your car donation will help someone in your immediate community.

• If necessary, the car donation can provide much-needed transportation. Individuals living in poverty often have trouble obtaining cars. Difficulty finding reliable, affordable transportation adds to the burden of poverty, and your donation may provide transportation to someone allowing them the dignity of keeping a job to support their family.
