Step 2
Contact the Good News Garage. The Good News Garage is a non-profit organization that sells cars at a very low price to individuals who may not be able to afford a vehicle. These people need a car in order to get to and from work and run errands (such as buy groceries). Anybody who buys from the Good News Garage must first be accepted into the program, ensuring that your donation is not wasted on somebody who doesn't truly need it. You can call GNG toll free at (877) 448-3288.
