Donation Opportunities

Vehicle Donations

Vehicle Donations:

Your contribution of a car, boat, motorcycle, trailer, truck, van, SUV or motor home will help Sacred Heart Church with our many ministries and service programs.

How the program works:  Your vehicle will be evaluated by our staff, if accepted; it will then be auctioned as a private party sale.  You will receive the proceeds, and in-turn, contribute the exact amount to Sacred Heart Church.

My car isn't running, can I still donate it?   Most cars are accepted into the program.  Exceptions are older cars whose value would not offset the cost of towing.

What kind of vehicle can I donate?  Almost any vehicle donation is accepted: RV's, boats, trailers, jet skis, etc.

How much will I receive as a tax deduction for my donation?  Sacred Heart Church is a 501c(3) charity organization.  Please check with your accountant or tax advisor to determine the amount of your benefit.  For a more detailed overview, the IRS publishes a Donors Guide to Car Donations.  Check their website: www.irs.gov.

If someone in my family passed away, can I donate their car?  Yes, you need the pink slip, a copy of the death certificate and documentation that you are the inheritor.

To ascertain your vehicle's readiness for this program, please contact Sandra Susini at the Parish Office (760) 346-6502.
