subject: Benefiting A Lot More Than Just Yourself Through Donating A Car [print this page] Have you ever read of the Chinese expression double happiness? Here in the Western Hemisphere there's a way to reaching that state of enjoyment and happiness. And this is through car donations. This may strike you as funny, maybe even absurd, but let me explain to you how donating an automobile can make you and others very happy.
Now how do car donations make a person exponentially happy, you wonder? Firstly, picture the car which you have held on to in the garage for an unbelievably long time and ask yourself these questions: Is that car still worth keeping? Is it still maximizing the use of gas, or has it become a gas guzzler? Has your expanding family getting to big for the car? Do you find it still in style? Do you actually need this car, or can someone less fortunate put it to a better use?
If you are a businessman, or a salesperson, you have to make an impression of achievement which starts with the automobile you drive. Driving around with an old beat up car might suggest that both your business and you are not doing quite well.
Instead of donating your car, you'll decide to just sell it yourself. This can also be a very good idea. When in comparison to car donations, advertising your car needs far more work. Why go through all of that when you are able very easily donate it?
Imagine yourself entertaining people you don't know who are making queries on the car which you have put up for sale. Most will need to test-drive it in person and you are always the person that has to go along with them. Many times you even let thousands test drive your cars without any offers.
Yet another thing to consider when selling your vehicle is that you need to make the many necessary repairs to help make your car be sellable. When including to this the chore of marketing the car, going online, posting it in the classified ads, one can become quite stressed.
If you finally find someone to purchase your car, you next need to go through and fill out all the documents and agreements necessary. Plus, you may earn the ire of the customer if the car fails to run as you said it would. There are stories of vehicles running efficiently and then quickly conking out when sold and driven by the new owner.
Car donations to charity get rid of all these annoying tasks. Despite the lack of strain, if you donate your vehicle to a charity, you are helping someone in need, someone much less fortunate then you are. It does not take a lot for you to donate your car, but it'll make a major difference in someone's life. You are happy because you have just gotten rid of your car, and also because you helped somebody in need, and they're happy because they now have a means to get to work.
