There are several good reasons, but the one we think is most important is when you donate to the Polly Klaas Foundation, you know exactly how the funds from your donated vehicle will be used.
For example, your donated vehicle will help to find missing children. Over the past 30 years, we have helped over 10,500 families to find their missing children – That is something to feel great about!
We have also provided over 20,000 students with Social Media Safety Education. The parallel we make with the horror of the Polly Klaas Kidnapping and Social Media today, is that Polly was taken from her very own bedroom. Today, we have kids online, in their very own bedrooms, talking to people they do not know. In many cases they are communicating with adult predators, who take time to groom them online, and convince them to leave the safety of their home, with devastating consequences, including sexual assault, and sex trafficking.
By teaching middle school students what red flags to look for when online, what NOT to post, and how to be aware of their settings to avoid exposing themselves to predators, we are keeping kids safe from online abductions. Our program is brought to middle-schools and also to the public. You will feel gratified knowing your vehicle donation made the work of the Polly Klaas Foundation possible!
When you donate your vehicle to an agency that is vague about what they do with the funds, you do not know exactly how your generous gift is being used.
At the Polly Klaas Foundation, we help ALL children, regardless of their religion, race or socio-economic status. Your vehicle donation makes it possible for us to keep kids safe, and to bring missing children home! We cannot do this without your support.
There are so many deserving non-profits to choose from – But make sure you know how they use the funds! We hope you will choose to donate your vehicle
to the Polly Klaas Foundation, so you can help us find missing children in your communities, and keep kids safe online and in the real world! For more information, please visit www.PollyKlaas.org/donate or call 1-707-769-1334 and ask to speak to the Executive Director. We are here to help you make a decision that not only helps children, but helps you feel great about donating your vehicle to the Polly Klaas Foundation!
