Drive Change with Car Donations!
Vehicle Donation Program
Step One Halfway House has partnered with CARS (Charitable Adult Rides & Services) to provide supporters with a simple and impactful way to give back. By donating your car, truck, RV, or other vehicle, you directly help us keep housing affordable for men in transition, veterans, and individuals experiencing homelessness.
Your donation helps fund safe housing, utilities, and the essentials our residents need while they work toward independence. In return, you’ll receive the necessary paperwork, a tax receipt, and peace of mind knowing your gift makes a real difference.
It’s quick and easy—fill out the online donation form or call [855-500-7433 | 855-500-RIDE] to speak with a live operator. Free towing is available nationwide, and we also pick up in Canada.
The Housing & Homelessness Crisis
Homelessness often creates a ripple effect—without stable housing, individuals face greater challenges with employment, health, and building supportive relationships. At the same time, those experiencing financial strain or family breakdowns can find themselves at risk of losing their home, leading to a cycle that is difficult to escape. Step One Halfway House exists to break that cycle. By offering safe, affordable, and structured housing, we give men the stability they need to focus on rebuilding their lives. A secure place to live opens the door to employment, education, and community connection. However, sustaining this mission requires ongoing resources. Community support is what allows us to continue providing housing opportunities to those who might otherwise have nowhere to go.
The Power of Car Donations
Why Car Donations Matter
Fueling Housing Stability
When you donate a vehicle—car, truck, motorcycle, or even a boat—you directly support Step One Halfway House in keeping housing affordable and accessible for men in transition. Proceeds help cover housing operations, utilities, and maintenance, ensuring residents have a safe, stable place to live.
Expanding Our Reach
Your donation allows us to extend housing opportunities to more individuals in need. Every vehicle contributes to keeping beds available for men who would otherwise have nowhere to go.
Providing Transportation Solutions
Transportation is often the bridge between homelessness and stability. Proceeds from vehicle donations can be used to improve access to jobs, education, and community services—helping residents take the next step toward independence.
Strengthening the Community
Car donations don’t just change individual lives—they improve the community as a whole. Stable housing means safer neighborhoods, stronger families, and healthier futures for everyone.
Why Car Donations Makes a Difference
Shockingly, as reported by USA Facts, “The Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) counted around 582,000 Americans experiencing homelessness in 2022.” Also in 2022, it was found that “about 60.6 percent of the estimated number of homeless individuals in the United States were male” (Statista). It’s our ongoing mission to make a dent in reducing those numbers!
By donating your vehicle, you will be assisting our Step One Halfway House team in providing the life-changing skills our male homeless population needs to become valuable members of society. We’ve made it as easy as filling out the online donation form! Or you can call our toll-free number at 855-500-7433 (855-500-RIDE).
Donate a vehicle together, let us make a positive impact in our community, one car at a time. Your generosity and kindness will help us achieve more and touch more lives. We are grateful for your support. This convenient alternative to selling or trading in your old vehicle is 100% tax-deductible, and we do all the work. Your old car may be unwanted to you, but when you donate it to Step One Halfway House you will have a direct impact on the homeless and those who suffer from substance use disorder in our state.
Would you like to make a donation but don’t have an entire vehicle to give?
That’s okay! You can make a donation of any amount by following these steps.
