How do I Purchase a Car From Father Joe's Car Donations?

Father Joe's Villages hold vehicle auctions two times each week.

Based in California, Father Joe's Villages is a non-profit organization dedicated to helping the underprivileged and homeless populations. The association accepts donations of household items and vehicles. Father Joe's sells the donated cars at local auctions.

Requirements

Bring a driver's license or picture identification to the auction. Only licensed automobile retailers and vehicle wholesalers may purchase a car through the Father Joe's public sale, so a seller's permit and bond, proving financial capability, are also necessary. Those exporting the automobile to Mexico may also participate in the auction.

Vehicles

Browse the cars before the day of the event. The Father Joe's website has a complete listing for the sale, complete with each vehicle's make, model and year. Some listings also include photographs of the car.

Process

Arrive early on the day of the event. Potential buyers can preview automobiles from 8 a.m. until the auction begins at 9 a.m. Father Joe's car auctions take place two times each week, Mondays and Thursdays.
