In CA, AZ or NV we replace such batteries and make other improvements that maximize the value of your gift.
What happens when I donate my car to Wounded Warrior Project?
You support unique, direct programs to meet the needs of injured service members. WWP also helps family members who suddenly find they’re serving as full-time caregivers. When you donate an RV or any other recreational vehicle such as a jet ski, ATV, golf cart or motorcycle to Wounded Warrior Project, 100% of the net proceeds from the sale of your vehicle benefit these committed, loyal servicemen and their families. (WWP reimburses Cars2Charities for the cost of towing, improvements and handling of each vehicle donation to Wounded Warrior Project.) We even accept commercial vehicles like a van or bus for Wounded Warrior Project, and construction and manufacturing equipment like forklifts, and more. The goal is to foster the most successful, well-adjusted generation of vets in U.S. history. 
We market your vehicle to its best advantage, particularly in CA, NV and AZ where we have a network of retail buyers who can appreciate the remaining life in your donated vehicle, and the quality and service we add. IRS regulations enable you to deduct the actual full sale priceof car donations to Wounded Warrior Project, so we work hard on your behalf and for the benefit of servicemen to get the best results. Within 30 days of sale, you and Wounded Warrior Project both receive carbon copies of the same IRS Form 1098-C, so there’s full transparency about the actual sale price of the vehicle.
What programs does a charity car donation to Wounded Warrior Project support?
There are 50,000 physically wounded warriors who’ve served in Operations Iraqi Freedom, Enduring Freedom and New Dawn, and another 400,000 who live with wounds that are aren’t seen with the naked eye. They include combat-related stress, depression and post-traumatic stress disorder. Treatment is needed for a wide variety of injuries, and the Department of Veterans Affairsshowcases examples of the challenges faced by returning service men and women.
Life-changing programs help self-sacrificing warriors begin to thrive again. Wounded Warrior Project began with the real-life events of service members whose spirits were lifted as a founding warrior compassionately remembered his own experience – and thought how much one’s spirits could be lifted with a few immediate comfort-items while recovering at the trauma center. When a warrior first arrives, he or she has nothing but the clothes on their back. The hospital provides a fresh gown, but the trauma center is sparse. To help make the stay a little more comfortable, Wounded Warrior Project began to provide a care back-pack to each wounded soldier — filled with essential care and comfort items such as clothing, toiletries, cards, and more. It seems so simple, so basic. But as one wounded warrior put it, “At that moment, there probably wasn’t a more significant gift I’ve ever received [than that back-pack]. And with the gift came a promise…that if there was anything I ever needed, they were there for me. It was just really nice to know there was somebody in your corner.”
(Operation Gratitude, another wonderful source of encouragement for troops, delivers care packages lovingly sent by friends and family of servicemen to those who are still in the field. It’s another way to support those on active duty, with the hope they never become a wounded warrior. Call if you’d also like to make a car donation to Operation Gratitude, or give any other vehicles for Operation Gratitude.)
Meanwhile, when warriors returned with wounds, vets and friends were so moved that they decided to band together to help others with similar needs. What began at first as a program to provide comfort backpacks has grown into a complete rehabilitative effort to assist warriors as they transition back to civilian life.
Soldiers returning from war have a wide range of needs. They need employment, and many have a disadvantage in the job market. Wounded Warrior Project offers economic empowerment by connecting labor to management. By 2017, an estimated 10,000 warriors and caregivers will be employed through the Warriors to Work®program.
Those returning from service also face transitional challenges. Restore Warriors® and Project Odyssey® are two programs for healing the minds of service men and women who’ve come from the battlefield. Staff members use outdoor rehab retreats, peer support and other interactive programs to facilitate readjustment. Check out other programsif there’s one you especially want to support.
The Alumni program at Wounded Warrior Projectis another way to provide long-term support. WWP Alumni go to scheduled functions, including college and professional sporting events, dinners, and many other activities. “There are no dues here—those were paid by wearing the uniform and on the battlefield.”
Wounded Warrior Project currently offers 19 different programs and services to wounded veterans and their families. The programs and services are separated into four separate categories: “Body,” “Mind,” “Economic Empowerment,” and “Engagement.” Vehicle donations to Wounded Warrior Project help pay for programs like these. WWP also provides nearly $5 million in grants to others like American Red Cross (which you can also support with a charity car donation to Red Cross).
The greatest casualty is being forgotten®. Let’s work together to give veterans the best chance at recovery. Donating a car to Wounded Warrior Project helps promote a holistic approach to serving our nation’s recently-serving soldiers and their families. Comfort starts here.
