Enjoy Free Towing and a Generous IRS Tax Deduction
Tourists come for the sparkling coastline, bustling boardwalk, and neon-lit nights, but Myrtle Beach’s heart beats much deeper, well beyond the souvenir shops.
However, in nearby Carolina Forest, a teen dropped out to help their family make ends meet; in Racepath, a parent with a disability struggles each month just to keep up; in Socastee, a neighbor rebuilding after a past arrest finds new doors slow to open.
Your old car can become a gateway to hope for these locals. Donating it to Goodwill Car Donations fuels job training, education, and disability support programs.
You’ll also enjoy a significant tax deduction, free towing anywhere along the Grand Strand, and an effortless process to clear your driveway. In Myrtle Beach, your generosity turns idle metal into new beginnings all around you.

- Youth development, including scholarships for kids at Horry County schools
