↗Real impact, real numbers
With a $1,500 donation, we can provide approximately 50 round-trip rides for cancer patients traveling to crucial chemotherapy or radiation appointments. Alternatively, this amount can cover a month of lodging for one patient family during their treatment or support multiple treatment cycles through copay assistance for low-income patients. Your contribution ensures that vital services are accessible when they are needed the most.
How we vet recipient partners
We prioritize partnerships with organizations that maintain high accountability and transparency in their operations. Our partners are carefully vetted based on their alignment with established patient assistance networks, ensuring they have a proven track record of delivering direct patient services as opposed to research funding. This means your donations go where they are most impactful.
How proceeds flow
After deducting towing and processing costs, approximately 70-80% of the gross proceeds from vehicle donations are directed to our partner organizations. This ensures that a substantial portion of your contribution directly funds patient care programs, making a tangible difference in the lives of those being served.
