Donate your Car
Car, truck, and boat donations are tax deductible for the full sales amount of your vehicle, a value that will likely exceed the credit you’d receive for a trade – a Win-Win for you and PRF!
We have teamed up with a vehicle donation program that handles the entire donation process for you. PRF will receive 50% of the net proceeds generated from the sale. From your initial call, to providing all the necessary tax documentation, to scheduling free pick up, it’s a quick and simple way to give. Please call 978-535-2594 or email donations@progeriaresearch.org for car donation information or go to Cars Helping America and choose PRF from the drop down list “Your Charity Preference.” Thank you!
