Does towing cost anything in Topeka?

No. Towing anywhere in Topeka is free, and the cost is never passed back to you or deducted from your receipt.

Do I have to be present for the Topeka pickup?

Usually someone should be there to hand over the keys and any paperwork, but if that is not possible, tell the coordinator when they call and they will go through the alternatives with you.

What happens to my vehicle after it leaves Topeka?

The vehicle is sold or recycled through the charity's process, and the proceeds fund Veterans Care Charity's programs for veterans, including meals, clothing and shelter assistance.

Can I donate a Topeka vehicle that is in storage?

Yes. Vehicles are collected from storage lots, self-storage facilities, workplaces and residential streets in Topeka, not only from home driveways. Mention the location when the coordinator calls.

What if I would rather give cash than a vehicle?

Veterans Care Charity accepts monetary gifts directly on its own site, and those donations fund the same veteran outreach programs.

How soon can a vehicle be picked up in Topeka?

Most donors hear from a coordinator the same day they submit the form, and pickup is usually scheduled within a few business days, depending on tow availability in Topeka and the time that works for you.

Veterans Car Donation is the vehicle-donation program of Veterans Care Charity, a registered 501(c)(3) nonprofit established in 2012 and based in Las Vegas, NV.

A vehicle you no longer need becomes practical help: food, warm clothing and shelter support for veterans, funded by donations like the ones we collect in Topeka.

"Veterans Care Charity is committed to improving the lives of our American heroes, the Veterans. Through outreach and advocacy, we can make a difference."

Vehicles accepted from Topeka donors

Condition is rarely the deciding factor. Vehicles from Topeka arrive running, barely running and not running at all, and all three are useful.

Mechanical failure, missing parts and cosmetic damage are all common. Describe the vehicle honestly on the form and the coordinator will tell you exactly what to expect.

Paperwork and tax deduction in Topeka

Your vehicle donation is tax-deductible to the fullest extent allowed by law. Veterans Care Charity is a registered 501(c)(3) nonprofit. You will receive a donation receipt, and IRS Form 1098-C if your vehicle sells for more than $500. Please consult your tax advisor regarding your specific deduction.

The receipt you get at pickup is your first piece of documentation. If the vehicle sells above $500, Form 1098-C shows the gross sale amount for your return.
