For more than a decade, UGM Motors has been working on donated cars, boats, motorcycles and other vehicles for two main purposes:
•
Generate revenue for homeless services at UGM’s shelters.
•
Offer meaningful employment for people in recovery to rebuild their work history.
When you donate your working or nonworking vehicle, you’re giving to help your neighbors in need. And because your tax deduction is based on the sale price when your vehicle is resold, you’ll get the full benefit of the rigorous evaluation, repair and detail process it undergoes at UGM Motors.
Your donation also gives people in recovery a chance to gain work experience and take pride in doing a job well.
“I look at the car before and after, and my eyes light up, and I say, ‘Wow, I did that!’ … The skills that I learned are helping others, and that’s what I want to do.” – Brian Watson, Employment Training Opportunity participant
