Donate your vehicle
Is your beloved car ready for retirement? It's been good to you, so why not let it do one more benevolent act and benefit WBEZ? All you have to do is click here to get started or call 866-789-8627.

Our partner, V-DAC, makes sure your donation is tax deductible and your vehicle is properly handled.

Need more information? At the site, you'll find information to help you decide whether it makes financial sense for you to donate your car, truck or RV instead of selling it or trading it in. You'll also find answers to questions about how it all works, and questions about tax deductibility.
