Habitat for Humanity International
Builds affordable homes alongside families in need across all 50 states and 70+ countries.
A Dodge County car that has depreciated to the point of an awkward sale price still has charitable value. Donating it bypasses the price negotiation, includes free pickup, and produces a tax write-off documented by the receiving charity.

Skip the listings. Get the tax write-off and free towing — our charity of the week handles the rest.
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.
Charities that accept vehicles routinely take cars that do not start, salvage-title vehicles, and aging junk cars. Condition affects value, not eligibility.
Vehicle donation is not limited to passenger cars. Dodge 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 Dodge County.

Their team verifies clear title, runs the vehicle history, and prepares all necessary transfer paperwork.

Begin with the form on this page: provide a few basic details about the Dodge County vehicle and request a free pickup. From there the donor is connected with a qualified 501(c)(3) that schedules the tow, accepts the signed title, and mails the IRS Form 1098-C.
