How your car donation helps
Our charity programs are the essence of what we do. We are thankful to be able to give back to many local communities across North America and to bring educational opportunities to so many children, with the help of our sister charity Oorah. We're a registered nonprofit Jewish organization. Learn about what we do and see our charity programs here.
The Kars4Kids Vision
Kars4Kids‘ vision is to give our children the ability to succeed in life. We focus on educational, mentorship and year-round programs for our children, their families and their communities, looking at the big picture of our children‘s development and the environment they grow up in. We rely on thousands of volunteers to help us change the world, one child at a time.
Dream Camp Experience
Being a kid in summer means going to camp for extended, uncomplicated fun. But not every family has the means to give their children that important experience. Our beautiful campus at Kars4Kids-sponsored summer camp TheZone, has every fun activity imaginable plus knowledgeable staff to guide the children every step of the way for the most meaningful summer ever.
Developing Leadership Skills
Some kids are born leaders-they just aren‘t getting the help they need to fulfill their innate leadership skills. Kars4Kids‘ Volunteer Leadership Program helps shape and develop that talent, thus providing a pool of immensely talented mentors and counselors to work with the next generation of kids in need.

b) The amount we sell your vehicle for - if it is more than $500.
Kars4kids is a classified 501(c)(3) charity organization. You can check with your tax advisor or accountant to determine the amount of your benefit.
