Sometimes the most difficult situations can be dealt with by the simplest solutions. The American Red Cross, surviving on the goodwill of volunteers and donations, provides a service we might die without. There’s a thought. One really easy way of helping to boost the funds needed to keep such an operation effective is by auto donation; you donate your car or encourage your friends to donate a used car that has no further purpose in their household to the American Red Cross.
Dial [800-737-0165] for details of how to go about it – it’s so easy. You call the number, donate your car and give your address details so that they can come out and collect it from your house and there is absolutely no expense to you in all of this. They then sell the car on at auction or use the parts for spares, which hopefully will raise some much-needed cash and in the current climate many of us are buying second hand cars rather than new ones. Maybe your car could be the one that tips the balance when the accounts are done and money has to be allocated to something near at home and for which the American Red Cross will step in to provide assistance.
You never know when disaster will strike and it is reassuring to know that a body like the American Red Cross is there for you when it does. Be a community-minded individual and make a car donation if that is what you can do. Don’t let this resource, which is of little value to you, but is very valuable to the work of the charity, slip away and rust in the bottom of a ditch when it could be doing some good. Dial the number and donate a car; you’ll feel better for it.
Disasters and crises, whether natural or manmade can impact upon us all and we’d expect help, usually in the form of the American Red Cross whom we know we can trust to be impartial, unfearing and resolute in their endeavors to help people in need, particularly during times of emergency.
