What
is National Charity Support Foundation?
It is the trade name of our non-profit organization that turns your
unwanted vehicle into a tax-deductible gift for a charity you choose.
How does our program work?
When you donate your vehicle, we prepare it for resale and give the net proceeds
to a charity you choose, less our costs and expenses involved in marketing
and preparing the vehicle for resale, and in selling your vehicle. Your vehicle
is then resold to individuals, wholesalers, dealers, exporters, or as a last
resort, dismantlers. Then 100% of the net proceeds are sent to your qualified
charity.
What do I need in order to donate?
All you need are the keys and title (pink slip) or other DMV
documentation to prove ownership. We recommend having the paperwork in front
of you when you call us. Once we make the arrangements to pick up your vehicle,
we will take care of all the paperwork for you.
What kinds of vehicles do you accept?
We accept cars, vans, trucks, motorcycles, recreational vehicles, boats, commercial
vehicles, and aircraft.
Do you accept other types of property?
We also accept real estate, jewelry, and fine art.
Does my vehicle have to run?
No. We accept most vehicles, which results into a contribution to the
charity of your choice.
Can I bring my vehicle to you?
We are happy to arrange to pick up your vehicle, but some donors choose to
bring it to our location. We are open weekdays from 9:00 am to 5:00 pm and
are located at 1309 West Sepulveda Blvd., Torrance, CA 90501.
What charities can I choose?
We have 2 options. One you can donate to a particular cause. We are open to
pretty much all causes. This is especially useful when natural disasters
or particular causes are prevalent. The second option is donate to a charity
of your choice. We have relationships with thousands of charities, including:
- Organizations benefiting fire departments and law enforcement
- Groups that research cures for diseases
- Pet rescue programs
- Schools
- Synagogues
- Churches
Most federally registered charities can benefit from your donation. For an
extended list of popular charities we are partnered with, click here.
How much of the proceeds will go to my designated
charity?
100% of the net proceeds will go to the charity you choose. We deduct the cost
of marketing, towing and preparing the vehicle for resale, and the costs and
expenses of the sales process. As a registered non-profit, we work to get the
most money to other non-profits, and the largest deductions for our generous
donors.
What areas do you service?
We accept vehicles throughout southern California, all the way north to San
Francisco.
What will happen when I call?
We will look up the year, make and model of your vehicle and tell you up front
what the range for your deduction is. Then we will make arrangements for
free towing to pick up your vehicle at your convenience.
