💜 Free pickup anywhere in the U.S. — tax-deductible, fast, and simple.
⚙️ How It Works
1️⃣ Tell Us About Your Car — Use our quick online form to share your vehicle’s details.
2️⃣ We Handle the Rest — Our licensed partner arranges pickup and towing anywhere in the country at no cost to you.
3️⃣ You Get the Receipt — Once your car is processed, you’ll receive a tax-deductible receipt from the American Family Center.
💜 Why It Matters
Even a car that’s seen better days can still drive change. Every “Ghost Car” helps fund programs that strengthen families, restore dignity, and create opportunity — including:
- Wednesday’s Women’s Closet – providing confidence and clothing to help women move forward with dignity.
- Choices Interactive – digital prevention tools addressing domestic and partner violence.
- Elder Life VR – immersive experiences connecting seniors and reducing isolation through technology and therapy.
- Baby Buddy On Board – developing safety awareness and future technologies to help protect children left unattended in vehicles.
- Elder Buddy On Board – inspired by Baby Buddy, this emerging concept explores elder-friendly safety tools to help older adults signal for assistance even with limited mobility or technology access.
🌟 Your old car can become someone else’s new beginning — and help build safer, stronger families for the future.
