CAR
DONATION PROGRAM
WCVB’s
Susan Wornick describes MARE Car Donation Program as one of
the “better ways to maximize donation dollars.”
There
are many reasons to donate your vehicle to MARE:
- You
avoid the costs, responsibility and time (i.e., Massachusetts
Lemon
Law) of trying to sell the car yourself or investing in
further repair costs.
- Route
128 Used Auto Parts & Sales processes all donated vehicles
on behalf of MARE and maximizes each donation by limiting
administrative costs. The highest percentage of a liquidated
vehicle is directly passed on to MARE.
- The
funds received from the donation of your vehicle help MARE
provide vital programs and services that help find adoptive
families for children living in foster care.
- You
may be able to receive a tax deduction for your car donation.
Consult your tax advisor for more details.
MARE has
developed a partnership with Route 128 Used Auto Parts &
Sales in Waltham, MA to recycle the vehicles that are donated
to our organization through this program. Route 128 has been
in business for over 30 years, and their professional, hardworking
staff are dedicated to ensuring that you have a pleasant experience
throughout the donation process.
How
to Donate a Vehicle:
- Call

- The
