ARS Car Donation Services is the only authorized vehicle donation partner for participating chapters, ensuring all vehicle donations directly support local wish-granting efforts

NEWPORT, R.I., Aug. 31, 2026 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- ARS Car Donation Services (https://www.arscars.com/) has been named the official vehicle donation partner for eight Make-A-Wish® (https://wish.org/car-donation) chapters across the United States, making it the only authorized program through which donors can contribute vehicles directly to support these participating chapters. Every donation made through the program directly supports local wish-granting efforts that bring hope, strength and joy to children with critical illnesses.

"Donors want to know their gift is making a real impact in their local community," said Joseph Hearn, President + CEO of Advanced Remarketing Services which operates ARS Car Donation Services. "As the official vehicle donation partner for these Make-A-Wish chapters, we provide a simple, transparent process that ensures every eligible vehicle benefits the donor's local chapter. We plan to expand to additional chapters over time as we continue to enhance the giving experience and maximize impact for both donors and chapters"

The program allows donors to turn unwanted cars, trucks, SUVs, motorcycles, boats, RVs, campers and trailers into meaningful support for children and families in their communities. Donors can begin the process in minutes by submitting a donation online or calling 855-CAR-WISH (227-9474). ARS Car Donation Services manages the entire process, including free vehicle pickup, title and paperwork assistance, and sale of the vehicle, ensuring a seamless experience from start to finish.

Participating chapters include Make-A-Wish Alaska & Washington, Make-A-Wish Connecticut, Make-A-Wish Eastern North Carolina, Make-A-Wish Greater Bay Area, Make-A-Wish Greater Virginia, Make-A-Wish Hudson Valley, Make-A-Wish Massachusetts and Rhode Island, Make-A-Wish New Jersey, and Make-A-Wish Philadelphia, Delaware & Susquehanna Valley.

Together, these chapters grant thousands of life-changing wishes each year, providing hope and strength to local children, just when it's needed most. Wishes can change the odds for children fighting their illness. A wish helps kids look past their limitations, families overcome anxiety, and entire communities experience joy.

The Make-A-Wish vehicle donation program powered exclusively by ARS Car Donation Services ensures every donation is securely processed and directed to the donor's selected local chapter, with full transparency at every step.

"Every vehicle has the power to change a child's story," said Joseph Hearn, ARS President + CEO of ARS Car Donation Services. "What may no longer serve one family can become a life-changing experience for another."
