Earlier this week, as one of Car Donation Wizard’s customer service representatives, I took a car donation on behalf of the American Cancer Society’s Cars for a Cure® program. The donor called and began telling me that he and his wife had just had a cancer scare with a pre-cancerous tumor. The donor’s wife had been back and forth to the doctor and ended up having to go through surgery to remove the potentially harmful tumor. Since then, she has been screened and cleared of any cancer at all. The donor said that he is thankful that his wife does not need any further treatment (like radiation or chemotherapy) and after the scare, they are now extremely grateful for their health. The donor said that his wife had the most amazing treatment from the doctors that they saw and wanted to do something amazing for others who might be in a similar situation. When they got home from her most recent doctor visit, they got right on the phone and decided to donate their 1992 Ford F150 truck to the American Cancer Society’s car donation program.
I felt so inspired by this donation story and by the good news that the American Cancer Society was able to help deliver to this couple.
Most people know of the American Cancer Society by name, but the ones who’ve been touched by the amazing quality of care and information that ACS provides to help catch cancer and treat it, know that this organization’s support is unparallelled. Donating a car to the American Cancer Society, really and truly makes such a difference in the lives of people nationwide and right in your local community whose lives are impacted by cancer.
