Easy and enjoyable to donate
This was a super easy way to donate my broken car. They scheduled a time to pick it up the next day. The tow truck driver was friendly and polite. Overall, a great experience and I hope the proceeds can benefit kids.

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.
Encouraging Literacy
The unique Kars4Kids Book Buddies program offers guided reading with mentors to further children‘s literacy. Working parents may not have the time to sit and listen to a child read and lots of kids have reading difficulties like dyslexia. Book Buddies makes reading a priority but also makes it enjoyable, a prime factor in motivating kids to read.

With over two dozen locations across the country and more to come, our ChillZone extracurricular programs are a special place for children and teens to get together with mentors and chill. There's hot food, fun activities and great prizes, but best of all is the warm atmosphere of unconditional love.
