Vehicle Donation Program

 

The Vehicle Donation Program is a way for donors to contribute used cars, trucks, vans, mobile homes and boats to OCBC. The program enables donors to help OCBC while receiving a tax deduction equal to the fair market value of the vehicle.  The OCBC Endowment Fund has entered into an agreement with Frank & Harold's Used Cars (F&H) to handle the pickup, removal, sale or disposal of donated vehicles. 

 

These are the steps in the vehicle donation process:

  1.  Donor notifies OCBC of desire to donate vehicle in person, by mail or e-mail.
     
  2. Vehicle donation form or information is turned into OCBC's office.
     
  3. Office notifies Frank and Harold’s Used Cars (F&H),  providing donor and vehicle information.
     
  4. F&H mails to donor Release of Liability and Title Release form. 
    bulletForms are mailed back to OCBC.
    bulletWhen forms are received at our office, OCBC will notify F&H that forms are in good order.
    bulletOCBC will instruct F&H to pick up vehicle.
     
  5. F&H contacts donor to arrange date and time of pick-up.  Pick up is done at the donor's convenience and at our expense.
     
  6. F&H picks up vehicle, donor signs off on pick-up form provided by F&H.

  9. OCBC sends a confirmation and thank you letter to donor that states value of the vehicle.
