Online Donation Form Individual donations are the backbone of all of Houston Audubon's programs.

Vehicle Donations
Vehicle Donation Form
Donate your used car, truck, boat or RV to Houston Audubon. We'll arrange to have it picked up free of charge. We accept most vehicles, even if they don't run. Some restrictions may apply on older vehicles, though. It's easy and convenient, and you'll be eligible for a tax deduction as well! Donating your used vehicle is much easier than it is to sell it yourself. And the tax savings might even be more than what you would receive from a trade in. You'll also be spared the ordeal of selling your vehicle. To make a donation, please use our secure online Vehicle Donation Form. Car Program LLC will handle all the details, including pick up, title transfer and tax receipt. For more information, please contact Robin Leonard, Community Relations Director at 713-932-1639.
