Can I donate a Omaha vehicle that is in storage?

Yes. Vehicles are collected from storage lots, self-storage facilities, workplaces and residential streets in Omaha, 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.

Do I have to be present for the Omaha 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 Omaha?

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.

Who do I call about a donation in Omaha?

Call (855) 681-1155 and a coordinator can take your Omaha donation details by phone, or submit the form on this page and they will call you.

Can I donate more than one vehicle in Omaha?

Yes. Submit the form for the first vehicle and mention the others when the coordinator calls; multiple pickups in Omaha can often be arranged together.
