American Red Cross
Accepts car, truck, motorcycle, RV, and boat donations — proceeds fund disaster response, blood services, and emergency aid nationwide.
Donating a vehicle sounds complicated. In practice, a Crosspointe donation is a short form, a scheduled free tow, a signed title, and an IRS Form 1098-C in the mail. The donor's only obligations are providing the title and a window of time for pickup.
