Skip the listings. Get the tax write-off and free towing — our charity of the week handles the rest.
An unused Pearl River County vehicle keeps generating insurance premiums and registration fees. Donating it ends those bills the moment the title transfers.
Vetted charities cover towing at no cost to the donor. Running or not, the vehicle is picked up at a scheduled time — the donor does not move it.
Vehicle donation is not limited to passenger cars. Pearl River County donors regularly give pickups, SUVs, motorcycles, RVs, boats on trailers, and even snowmobiles to qualified charities.
Vehicle donations routed to MatchingDonors.com receive prioritized handling — free towing, title transfer, and IRS Form 1098-C after the vehicle sells. Proceeds fund the matching platform that has connected over 15,000 registered donors with patients in need.

Vehicle donation is not limited to running passenger cars. Pickup trucks, SUVs, minivans, motorcycles, RVs, boats on trailers, and even snowmobiles and ATVs are accepted by 501(c)(3) charities serving Pearl River County.

The vehicle is sold or put to use by the charity, and proceeds fund their mission.
Straight answers on donating your car, the tax treatment, and what to expect.

Most charities sell donated vehicles — at auction, through a partner dealer, or directly — and direct the proceeds to their programs. Some charities use a donated car directly for fleet or client transportation. The receiving charity can confirm its intended use before pickup.
