What this is
Turn your unwanted car into affordable housing support through Houston Habitat for Humanity's free vehicle donation program.
Houston Habitat for Humanity's Cars for Homes program turns your unwanted vehicle into funding for affordable housing in our community. This donation program accepts cars, trucks, motorcycles, boats, and RVs in any condition as long as they have major parts and tires. When you donate your vehicle, Houston Habitat sells it and uses the proceeds to build safe, affordable homes for local families.
The process is simple and free. You call to schedule pickup, they tow your vehicle at no cost, and you receive tax documentation. Car donations qualify as charitable contributions, potentially giving you a tax deduction when you itemize.
The deduction amount depends on your vehicle's sale price and how the organization uses it. Beyond helping families achieve homeownership, vehicle donation supports environmental sustainability by keeping cars out of landfills and recycling valuable materials like steel. Houston faces ongoing affordable housing challenges, with many working families priced out of homeownership.
Whether your car runs or not, it can become part of someone's path to stable housing in Houston.
