Driving Successful Lives Moves to Include Real Estate Donation to its Core Collaborative Efforts in Raising Funds for Families and Individuals In Need

Driving Successful Lives, a Michigan non-profit organization that accepts used car donations as a way to provide funding to other non-profits and churches that it partners with, has added commercial & residential real estate donation functionality.  A spokesman for the non-profit organization reported that the addition of real estate donations will “drastically increase the dollar amounts that we are able to contribute to worthwhile causes.”

“Having the ability to work with individual donors, companies and real estate professionals will help us to provide much-needed funding to many more families – while providing significant tax benefits to the donors.  Rather than sitting on a possibly inactive property, the donor get out from under the property while seeing both financial and social benefits. We can take these (oftentimes) depreciating properties and put them back into use.  With some real estate donations, our partner charities have the opportunity to house families that are sorely in need of a home.”

Driving Successful Lives will accept real estate donations that include, but are not limited to: single homes, multi-unit apartment buildings, storefronts, warehouses, etc.  “Our goal is to be able to put houses back in circulation as homes and put other types of real estate to good use to benefit as many families 7 individuals in need as possible.”
