After receiving their 1098-C tax form for their car donation: "I do business dealings all the time, and I just wanted to say that seldom have I seen such attention given to business detail as you have given to this."

-Mr. S. in Palo Alto, CA 

Thanks for all the help, there. That was nice and easy!

This has been a very easy, enjoyable process. I have donated two vehicles in the past to other organizations and yours by far exceeds! You will receive additional cars from me in the future:)

From D.C. in North Carolina

I wanted to say thank you for your prompt reply and for faxing me the 1098-C form for tax purposes. Wish you good luck and continuous success in your noble endeavors.

Best regards,

The Ik people were poorly represented in a book called “The Mountain People” written by Colin Turnbull in 1972 As a result of his book, the Ik are studied in universities today by sociology students as being “The Tribe With No Love” and “The People Who Don’t Sing”. We found these claims to be entirely unfounded and were most impressed by their incredible peaceful ethic.

We were able to minister and strengthen them spiritually, before they had been fearful and had said that both God and man had forgotten them. We were also able to bring donated medicines for flu and malaria as well as school supplies for 700 students at the 2 schools in the region. Excerpted from full story at www.activatedministries.org.

Since December of 2005, when the Tsunami lashed the coastal areas of Asia, we have been able to provide 48 villages in the affected areas and coastal towns with aid in the form of food, clothing, and basic supplies as well as other relief items, which were desperately needed. Since that time, our teams have continued to work in the villages in Tamil Nadu that were affected, and are helping to rehabilitate the villages and families who suffered and aid them in getting back on their feet. Over 100 boats were distributed to fishermen who had lost everything and had no means to earn a living. We also procured sponsorship of the building of 30 houses as well as several other community halls and tuition centers in villages in seven different districts.

It has been truly fulfilling to see the resilience of many communities and families who had lost everything they owned, and yet were so eager to make a fresh start at life. More important than providing them with material aid, we were able to provide these needy families with hope by praying with them. These villages have made surprising progress in the past year, and are well on their way to becoming self-sufficient communities once more. Full Story

As part our efforts to provide donors with the best car donation experience possible, we have added SSL security to all online forms that process your personal information including our easy car donation form.

We are continually improving our services and website features to make for a better overall donation experience. Another recent website addition is an easy site search to help you find the information you need quickly.

Once you have submited your donation you can be sure that we will have a professional tow company pickup your vehicle in the timeliest manner possible, and once your car is picked up we ensure your donation is processed so that you are able to claim the best deduction possible for your car, either by selling your vehicle or using it to further Activated Ministries' charitable projects.
