Turn Your Clunker into Cash For Cystic Fibrosis Research

Sunday October 11, 2009

If you or somebody you know has a car that's just taking up space in your driveway, I've got good news for you. The Cystic Fibrosis Foundation has partnered with the National Vehicle Donation program to offer you the opportunity to turn your unwanted vehicle into cash for cystic fibrosis research. You can donate any kind of vehicle -- running or not. All you have to do is contact National Vehicle Donation at 800-456-5517 or go their website to register your donation. They will make all the arrangements to have your vehicle picked up and sold at auction or sold for scrap metal - whichever would produce the best selling price. Once your car is sold, about 80% of the proceeds will go directly to the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation as a charitable donation that you can claim on your taxes.

What could be easier than that? You get to help support cystic fibrosis research, dispose of your clunker without any hassle and get a tax deduction to boot - all with one quick phone call.
