↗Real impact, real numbers
When you donate a vehicle valued at $1,500, you help provide approximately 15,000 meals to families in need through our partner food banks. A $2,500 donation can translate into about 25,000 meals, while a $5,000 donation equals roughly 50,000 meals. Thanks to our efficient distribution network, every donation dollar is stretched further, ensuring that we can make the most substantial impact possible in combating hunger across Utah. Your support literally feeds families and strengthens community ties.
How we vet recipient partners
At ReviveRides, we are committed to ensuring that your donations are making a meaningful impact. We adhere to strict vetting criteria for our partner nonprofits serving food banks and pantry networks. We prioritize affiliates of the Feeding America network, which are held to high accountability standards, and only support organizations that have a Charity Navigator rating of 4-stars or above. Additionally, we ensure that partner organizations maintain low overhead costs (under 10%) and have a strong program ratio of over 90% as validated by their Form 990.
How proceeds flow
After the sale of your donated vehicle, we cover necessary towing and processing costs, directing approximately 70-80% of the gross proceeds to our partner food banks. The remaining funds are then allocated based on the program ratio, ensuring that your donations are used effectively to support core operations and vital programs in the fight against hunger.
Utah recipient landscape
Food insecurity remains a pressing issue in Utah, with many families struggling to make ends meet. Local food banks and pantry networks are essential in addressing these challenges, yet they require adequate resources and infrastructure to thrive. Your vehicle donation directly supports these regional efforts, helping to ensure that food is accessible to all Utah residents—particularly vulnerable populations like children and seniors. Together, we can strengthen our community's food distribution landscape.
