Kars for Kids

Donate a car, boat, truck, or trailer to the Museum. Simply call the Museum and answer a few questions regarding your potential donation. If your vehicle is accepted (some restrictions may apply), the Museum will arrange for towing and sale. All that is required of you is to file your release of liability with the DMV. You will then receive a letter verifying your tax-deductible donation. Funds from this ongoing campaign help support our children's educational programs.
