Note that many car-donation websites are all owned by Oorah / Joy For Our Youth (aka, "JOY") which claims to raise monies for Jewish children "at risk". But very little of the $30+ million they receive each year actually goes to any "at risk kids" - some monies go to ultra-Orthodox Jewish yeshivas (private schools) and MOST seems to go to real estate controlled by Kars4Kids' founder and CEO Eli Mintz.
The following are some of the aliases that Kars4Kids / Oorah / JOY / Eli Mintz operate under:
givejoy.org
kars4kids.org
donatecars.com
junk-yard.org
junk-car.org
towing4tots.org
scrapcar.org
donateautos.com
donatecar.TV
carsforkids.com
Don't be fooled by the expensive jingle on the radio: Kars4Kids has been under investigation by attorney generals in many states and is still reportedly being examined by New Jersey, New York and New Mexico. DO YOUR HOMEWORK - see if anyone has actually received a "free" vacation or where the money really goes. Bernie Madoff was trusted, too... until the authorities finally shut him down.
