Cars for Courage is one of Minnesota’s
first and one of the area’s largest charitable vehicle donation programs. Since
1996, proceeds from Cars for Courage
have supported Courage Center, now Courage Kenny Rehabilitation Institute since
its recent merger with Sister Kenny Rehabilitation Institute, part of Allina
Health. Cars
for Courage is an essential source of income for the
organization.
Cars for Courage accepts cars, boats, trucks, motorcycles, snowmobiles and other
vehicles. Vehicles are sold for the
highest possible price, often by auction, to maximize the value of your gift
and tax deduction.
Raceway Park is located off Highway 101 at One Checkered Flag Blvd. in Shakopee. For
