What is Cartober?
Cartober is an online giving campaign held throughout the month of October to showcase the power of vehicle donations for nonprofits. Whether it's a car, truck, RV, motorcycle, or boat, Cartober encourages people to donate their unwanted vehicles to their favorite nonprofits. By donating a vehicle, people like you can make a tangible difference in their communities and support causes they care about.
Our Mission

Each year, our Adult Rehabilitation Centers (ARCs) help more than 150,000 individuals attain stability and self-sufficiency, offering hope for the future.
When you donate a vehicle during Cartober, you provide vital funding that allows us to continue this life-changing work. Your gift supports our programs, ensures that vulnerable individuals receive the help they need, and empowers families and communities nationwide.
