Donating a vehicle is a simple, meaningful way to support the ongoing ministry and mission of Columbine Unitarian Universalist Church (CUUC). Through our partnership with ARC Thrift Stores via Vehicles for Charity (VFC), your unwanted vehicle can be turned into vital support for our church—often with a valuable tax benefit for you.
Why Donate a Vehicle?
A vehicle donation is an easy way to give that creates real impact:
-
Make a tangible difference: Proceeds from your donated vehicle directly support CUUC’s programs, worship, community care, and justice work.
-
Simple and convenient: Vehicles are accepted whether they are running or not, and pickup is arranged for you.
-
Wide range of vehicles accepted: Cars, trucks, vans, RVs, motorcycles, dirt bikes, tractors, boats, and trailers are all eligible.
-
Free up space: Clear out a vehicle you no longer need while putting it to good use.
-
Potential tax benefits: You’ll receive the documentation needed for IRS reporting after the vehicle is sold or otherwise disposed of.
Your donation helps ensure that CUUC remains a welcoming, values-driven spiritual home and a force for compassion and justice in our wider community.
