Donate vehicles to help fund LW’s disaster preparedness
EMERGENCY INFORMATION COUNCIL
Tired of paying your RV registration and lot charges? Can’t drive or maintain it? The Emergency Information Council (EIC) has partnered with careasy.org to accept vehicle donations to fund emergency preparedness activities in Leisure World.
Residents can now donate their unwanted RV, car, truck, motorcycle, golf cart or boat and qualify for a significant tax deduction while supporting Leisure World resident’s resilience in an emergency incident.
Simply go online to www.careasy.org/nonprofit/emergencyinformation- council and fill out the form. People can also call 855-500-7433 and the CAREASY customer service representatives will guide residents through the process seven days a week. They will arrange the pick-up of the vehicle donation and handle the necessary paperwork, at no cost. Most vehicles, running or not, can be picked up within 72 hours. People will receive an initial car donation receipt upon pick-up and then the CAREASY team will work to turn the car into cash to support the EIC.
The EIC gratefully acknowledges vehicle donations during the last year of a 2001 Saturn by the Shetlands of Mutual 15, a 2001 Toyota Camry by Mutual 16’s Janet Isom, and a 1979 Dodge B300 RV by Bob Sisler of Mutual 4. For more information about the EIC go to www.eiclwsb.org or contact President Jackie Dunagan at 626-795-8656 or Jackie919@gmail.com. —Nick Massetti
