The Greater Bay Area Chapter of the Crohn’s and Colitis Foundation of America (CCFA) is asking people to donate their used cars, trucks and motor homes to help those afflicted with inflammatory bowel diseases.

The “Cars For A Cure” program gives the maximum tax deduction as allowed by law, while helping to fight digestive diseases. Debilitating digestive diseases affect approximately 2,000,000 people every year, according to the CCFA.

Interested donors must have clear title to the vehicle and registration. The CCFA will arrange for free pick-up or towing and handle any paperwork from the Department of Motor Vehicles. Donors receive a receipt for Blue Book value.

For more information, call (800) 328-8677.

In Our Opinion

Editorial

We’ve recently covered the passing of two of this community’s most involved and committed volunteers, Lee Lynch and Billy Russell. They represented an era when people helped out, not so they could get their name on a building, but because it was simply the right thing to do.

There’s a new generation of volunteers hard at work right now in this community who are carrying on their legacy. The level of involvement in the recent Los Altos Relay For Life event bears this out.
