Habitat for Humanity International
Builds affordable homes alongside families in need across all 50 states and 70+ countries.
Not every Cumberland County vehicle is worth the work of a private sale. A non-running car, an aging second vehicle, or a motorcycle gathering dust can quietly cost more in insurance and registration than it would fetch on the open market. Donating it ends the expense and produces a tax deduction in its place.

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.
Vehicle donation is not limited to passenger cars. Cumberland County donors regularly give pickups, SUVs, motorcycles, RVs, boats on trailers, and even snowmobiles to qualified charities.
Proceeds from donated vehicles fund real programs — housing, food assistance, youth services, veterans support — operating across Cumberland County and Cumberland County.
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.

Getting started is straightforward: a few details about the Cumberland County vehicle and a request for a free, no-obligation pickup. There is no commitment at this stage and no cost to the donor.
From there, the request is passed to a qualified 501(c)(3) equipped to accept vehicle donations. That charity schedules the tow, accepts the signed title at pickup, and mails the IRS Form 1098-C. Easy Car Donation is an independent referral resource — the donation itself is completed between the donor and the receiving charity.
A transparent, four-step process ensures a smooth transition from vehicle to impact. (The exact process may differ between organizations, these are the general phases)
Your charity will conduct a preliminary assessment of your vehicle's market value and suitability for donation.
Their team verifies clear title, runs the vehicle history, and prepares all necessary transfer paperwork.
The title is officially transferred to the charity. You receive IRS Form 1098-C for tax deduction purposes.
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.
A duplicate title can be ordered from the state DMV; the receiving charity can usually wait while the replacement arrives. Donating a vehicle without any title is rarely possible.
A charitable deduction only lowers taxes for filers who itemize. A donor taking the standard deduction still ends the vehicle's carrying costs and supports the chosen cause, but the deduction itself would not apply to that return.
Yes. There is no limit on the number of vehicles a donor can give. Each donation is documented separately, with its own title transfer and its own Form 1098-C if applicable.
Insurance should generally be kept active until the title transfer is complete and the vehicle has been picked up. Confirming the transfer with the state DMV before canceling protects the donor from liability on the vehicle after it leaves.
Form 1098-C is the IRS document a charity sends to a donor after a vehicle donation. For a deduction over $500, the donor attaches Copy B of Form 1098-C (or a Form 1098-C substitute) to the tax return. For a deduction of $500 or less, the form is not required.
