↗Real impact, real numbers
Your generous donations can have immediate and lasting impacts on cancer patients in Texas. For instance, a donation of $1,500 can fund approximately 50 round-trip rides to chemotherapy or radiation for patients without transportation. Alternatively, it could cover a month's lodging for a family during treatment or provide copay assistance that allows low-income patients to access multiple treatment cycles. Each dollar you contribute translates into essential resources that directly improve the quality of life for patients and their families in need.
How we vet recipient partners
At Rev Up Giving, we ensure that all partner nonprofits serving cancer patients meet rigorous vetting criteria. We prioritize organizations with a strong track record of providing patient assistance services, focusing on those affiliated with recognized networks. Our partners are committed to transparency, showcasing high program ratios that reflect direct service to patients versus administrative expenses. We regularly review patient-served metrics to ensure accountability and effectiveness in their programs.
How proceeds flow
After covering necessary tow and processing costs, about 70-80% of the gross proceeds from your vehicle donation go directly to our partner organizations. From there, we apply the program ratio to allocate funds specifically to patient support services, ensuring that your contribution directly benefits those who need it most. This structured approach maximizes the impact of each donation, allowing us to provide essential services to cancer patients in Texas.

In Texas, the need for cancer patient support services is critical. With numerous treatment facilities and a growing population, the demand for assistance with transportation, lodging, and emotional support is ever-present.
