Considering selling or trading in your old car, truck or SUV? Give it new life by donating it to The National WWII Museum.
The Museum’s national car donation program is a hassle-free way of putting your used vehicle to work supporting our efforts to tell the story of the American experience during World War II. In addition, you may be eligible to receive a tax deduction for the vehicle’s sale price.
How it Works
The National WWII Museum has teamed with Charitable Adult Rides & Services (CARS), to accept vehicle donations across the United States.
Once you contact CARS’ customer service representative about making the donation, everything will be taken care of—including free vehicle pick–up—in any state. Once your vehicle is sold, CARS will send you a receipt for your tax records, and the net sale proceeds will be donated to The National WWII Museum in your name.
If the car sells for less than $500.00, the receipt given when the car is towed away will serve as your tax receipt. If the car sells for $500.00 or more, you will receive a 1098-C form for tax purposes.
To learn more about this exciting program, call CARS toll free at 1-877-WW2-GIVE (1-877-992-4483).

$10 For Them
The Museum receives no government funding for our ongoing operating expenses, therefore we depend heavily on admission revenue and donations to pay the bills. With every $10 you donate, you will help cover the cost of admission for WWII veterans and the resources it takes to ensure their stories are never forgotten.

Gift Planning
Now more than ever, we need to do all we can to ensure that the courage and sacrifices of the men and women who won World War II are remembered with gratitude and respect and kept relevant for all Americans. One important way to help achieve this goal is to make a deferred planned gift to the Museum as part of your estate plan.
