Westport Weston Family YMCA Launches Car Donation Program – A New Way to Give Back

WESTPORT, CT, February 19, 2025 – The Westport Weston Family YMCA is excited to introduce its Car Donation Program in partnership with Advanced Remarketing Services (ARS), offering a simple and impactful way for community members to support the Y while parting with an unwanted vehicle.

Donating is easy—just fill out a short online form with your vehicle details, and ARS handles the rest. ARS schedules a free vehicle pickup, manages the sale, and issues a tax receipt to the donor. The YMCA then receives proceeds from the sale, helping to fund essential programs and services that benefit the local community.

“We’re thrilled to offer this new opportunity for our community to give back,” said Brian Marazzi, Director of Membership. “Every donation helps strengthen our programs that support youth development, healthy living, social responsibility and the lives of the people we serve”.

Almost all running and non-running vehicles will be accepted, while trucks, motorcycles, boats, snowmobiles, heavy machinery, trailers and RVs may be considered on a case-by-case basis. To learn more about the program, read through FAQ or donate your vehicle today, visit westporty.org/cars.

Give today, and change a life tomorrow. Join us in strengthening our community—donate today!
