Donate your vehicle
Turn an unused vehicle into meaningful support for birds and the places they need to thrive.
Donating your car, truck, boat, or RV is a simple way to contribute to bird conservation across southern Wisconsin. Through our partnership with Careasy, your vehicle will be picked up at no cost, sold, and the proceeds will directly support Southern Wisconsin Bird Alliance’s work to protect habitat, advance conservation, and connect people with birds.
