In the UK there is a charity called GiveaCar: Donate your car to charity - quick, easy and free. This non-profit organisation sells old cars and donates the proceeds to charity.
Sarah's Rural Library Fund, in the UK, is the charity that was formed after librarian Sarah Heery passed away and donated part of her estate to the Rural Libraries Network. Since then, Sarah Heery's family and friends have continued to fundraise for the Network.
For this reason, Sarah's Rural Library Fund is also registered with GiveaCar. And recently they have sold Sarah Heery's old car. Sarah's car has had many owners after she passed away, including her sister, nephew, sister-in-law and great-niece. Sadly, the car has now reached the end of its useful life, after 20 years and 356,000 kilometres. GiveaCar retired the car and donated the proceeds to Sarah's Rural Library Fund, then friends in England sent this donation to Rural Libraries so that we can buy and publish new books.
