Did you know that 1 in 8 women in the U.S. will be diagnosed with breast cancer at some point in her lifetime? That’s one woman diagnosed every two minutes. That’s unacceptable! It doesn’t have to be this way. Susan G. Komen takes a comprehensive approach to the fight against breast cancer by advocating for the breast cancer community, working to fund research breakthroughs, and ensuring all patients receive the care they need. The proceeds from the sale of your car donation, truck donation, or even boat donation will help provide the necessary funding for research aimed at finding new ways to detect, treat and prevent breast cancer.
Take action today and turn your idle vehicle into an instrument of change. The process is easy, the pick-up is free, and your gift is tax-deductible.
