Car Donation Tip: Ask how and where the money will be spent

This question should be easily answered. You should search for the charity or agency that makes the best use of the funds from your car donation. Beware of programs that promise to send proceeds to an organization without having a direct relationship. All charities are not created equal, and all are not run with the same attention to donor wishes. Shop around! If you want to find out more about the charity that you are considering for your contribution, there are several charity watchdog organizations and sites you can access. One of the best for gathering information is: Guidestar. You may also want to visit Charity Navigator.
