Time for a new car? Don’t junk it, DONATE your old car to Trilogy!

Your unwanted car or other vehicle can be turned into a tax-deductible CASH donation that supports Trilogy’s mental health programs. We’ve partnered with Charitable Adult Rides and Services (CARS) to make it easy!

How does it work?

You can quickly and easily donate your vehicle to Trilogy by following these steps:

1. Fill out the online donation form or call 855-500-7433.
2. Schedule your free vehicle pick-up.
3. That’s it! You will receive paperwork with tax-deductible information.

We accept donations of most types of motorized vehicles, including trucks, boats, RVs and more, even if they are no longer running, and pick-up is free and fast.

Your vehicle donation will support Trilogy’s programs. The proceeds from the sale of your vehicle will help people in mental health recovery build meaningful and independent lives.

Include Trilogy in your planned giving.

You can ensure a lasting impact for the people and communities that Trilogy serves by including Trilogy in your estate planning. There are a number of ways planned giving can be structured, but many donors prefer the simplicity of bequests (including Trilogy in your will). Your financial advisor can help you create a plan that is right for you. If you choose to make a bequest to Trilogy, consider completing this Declaration of Intent letter. While non-binding, the Declaration of Intent allows us to recognize your generosity. We welcome your inquiries at Development@TrilogyInc.org.

You can donate shares of stock to Trilogy in a few simple steps

There are a number of benefits to donating stock to Trilogy. When you donate stock that has appreciated for a year or more, you can deduct the value of the stock and avoid the tax on capital gains. Your gift of stock is more powerful for you and for Trilogy – and it’s simple. Most donors choose to donate shares in publicly-traded companies (like Google, for example). You can donate by direct transfer from your financial institution.

Please contact Development@TrilogyInc.org if you are planning to make a gift of stock. We’ll provide all the information for your financial institution to make the donation.
