Right..... Sounds a lot like "Kars for Kids" huh? I wonder why..... Oh, Wait, I don't.
More than 84,000 well-intentioned people donated their vehicles to Kars, the FTC stated in a press release.
If you want to donate, do a lot of fucking research first or just give it directly to your local VFW or something. It will probably actually go back into the community in that case.

>A charity that accepted donations of vehicles that would pay for breast cancer screenings for low-income patients agreed Thursday to pay a $3.8 million fine and to restrictions on future fundraising activities in 19 U.S. states, including Colorado.
Kars-R-Us.com and its ownership, Michael Irwin and Lisa Frank of California, reached a settlement with the Federal Trade Commission and the attorneys general from the states.
From 2017 to 2022, Kars-R-Us.com recruited donations using deceptive advertising, according to case documents. While it raised more than $45 million, less than half a percent of that money went toward breast cancer screenings.
Instead, the charity, its owners, and many of its vendors pocketed most of the money, per prosecutors.
