Turner says: When I was looking a local 501c3 charity to donate my car, I came across Cars Of Hope. I wanted to be able donate in a way that could directly impact someone in my community. Their staff was very helpful in the process of working through the paperwork as well as getting my not-running car towed off to be assessed.
Later on, they let me know that they were able to get my donated car running and ready for someone who needed it and assured me that they ensure that the cars they provide will last people at least a couple years.
