Wasn't sure where to put this so car and truck seemed like the right place. I am getting the new 2010 Honda Insight this Friday, I did not use my car as a trade in. Even though it still runs, it is in bad shape. But with a medium amount of work it should be fine.

My problem is I do not know which charity to donate the car to. So I am looking to you fellow AMHD users. Do you have a favorite charity that you would like to suggest I donate the car to? I live in PA. Let me know I look forward to hearing your suggestions. Thanks

American Cancer Society is where I donated a car. I don't know if you have a Kars 4 Kids chapter in your are, but that is another good one.

Car4 kids is where I was leaning towards. But then I keep thinking about the purple heart also.

I gave my old Ford Explorer to the American Lung Association last year. My only complaint is that they sell cars in bulk through auctions and so you don't exactly get top dollar. I ended up with only a $300 donation, whereas the Kelley Blue Book value for trade-in was more like $2000.
