Autos for Life Rolls into Summer!
By David N. O'Steen, Jr.

Now that the cold weather has finally lost its grip on most of the nation, and the kids are finishing the school year, it's time to start thinking about traveling, vacations, and relaxing.

But this time of the year can also be a good opportunity to start thinking about donating that car, truck, or van that you no longer need that is taking up space in your driveway or garage. Many of you have generously donated a great variety of vehicles to "Autos for Life" in the past, and there have also been some great stories that go along with them.

Recently, a gentleman in Washington State donated a 1956 Ford Customline to National Right to Life through our "Autos for Life" program. The car had been bought new by his father and kept in the same family for 56 years!

As donations collector's cars are a little out of the ordinary, so we were truly excited! Also, after being in the same family for so long, I'm sure a lot of thought went into which organization should receive it!

The car had been restored some years back. It was purchased from our online auction by a gentleman in Idaho who runs a collector car dealership and had been looking for just such a car!

This was a great gift, the proceeds of which will help us to continue our life-saving work! Let me suggest that now it's your turn.

All that we need from you is a description (miles, vehicle identification number--VIN#--condition, features, the good, the bad, etc.) along with several pictures, the more, the better. We'll take care of the rest!

Digital photos are preferred, but other formats work as well. You don't have to bring the vehicle anywhere, or do anything with it, and there is no additional paperwork to complete. The buyer picks the vehicle up directly from you at your convenience, and you receive a tax deduction for the full sale amount!

If you or someone you know has a vehicle to donate, please contact David O'Steen Jr. at (202) 626-8823 or dojr@nrlc.org. If you prefer you can send all the vehicle information by regular mail to:

"Autos for Life"
c/o National Right to Life
512 10th St. N.W.
Washington, DC 20004

Again, vehicles can be of any age, and located anywhere in the country. Countless unborn babies are depending on us, and with your prayers and continued support we won't let them down!
