Working families are waiting: Donate your car to Community Auto
Your unwanted vehicle, not matter what the condition, can help a low-income, working individual. Vehicles donated to Community Auto are repaired and sold at below market value to local, working families who need them to get to work. Cars not suitable for repair are sold at auction and the money is used for the program. If you have a vehicle not worth the cost of repairs, or that sits unused, contact Community Auto, a program of North Hills Community Outreach, at 724-443-8300 or www.communityauto.org. You could change a life and get the maximum tax deduction. FREE pickup, towing and notary.
