Got an idle car? Put it to work building homes!

Car donations to Habitat for Humanity can help more low-income families have a decent place to call home.  By donating a car to Habitat’s Cars for Homes program, you help build houses in partnership with families in need of decent, affordable shelter.

It's simple: call Cars for Homes at 877-277-4344 or visit carsforhomes.org to donate your cars, boats, RVs, motorcycles, airplanes or other motorized vehicles -  running or not!


How much of the donation goes to house building? Well, because every donated vehicle is unique there isn't a standard amount. It depends on the condition, location, quality, etc. Late-model cars that are running and in good condition will generate more funds than non-running vehicles. But we aren't picky.  Everything counts!

The Cars for Home program is managed by Habitat for Humanity International and all the net proceeds from your vehicle donation will benefit Habitat for Humanity of Southern Santa Barbara County.
