Jill on Money with Jill Schlesinger sponsors and ad reads

You know, I always say to make smart financial decisions. So let me ask you this. What exactly is that old car in your driveway doing for you right now? Seriously, is it an extra car nobody drives anymore? Maybe it doesn't run. Do you keep saying you'll sell it one weekend and suddenly it's been two years? Meanwhile, it's taking up space, costing you money, and slowly becoming part of the landscape. Here's the easy solution. Donate it to Cars for Kids. And yes, it's that Cars for Kids. The one with the jingle you absolutely know already. 1-877-CARS4KIDS. Here's why people love to donate to Cars 4 Kids. It's ridiculously simple. You go to cars4kids.org slash Jill. That's cars with a K. Answer a few simple questions and you're done. They'll come pick up the vehicle for free, tow it away, handle the paperwork, and you'll receive a tax-deductible receipt. Done. Cars for Kids has been doing this for over 30 years and has accepted more than a million vehicle donations. So if you've got a car you're not using, turn it into something meaningful. Go to carsforkids.org slash Jill. That's cars with a K. And fair warning, now that jingle's going to be stuck in your head for the rest of the day.
