Support Northeast Minneapolis by Donating Your Car to Twin City Wheels

Transform your old car into a lifeline for those in Northeast Minneapolis while supporting our eclectic community spirit and local initiatives.

Northeast Minneapolis is home to a diverse mix of creatives, families, and artists who make the area's vibrancy unique. The streets are often adorned with murals, and the local eateries buzz with laughter and conversation. It’s not uncommon for residents to find themselves needing to part with a vehicle—whether due to a recent move, downsizing, or even a car that’s failed inspection on the scenic Central Avenue.

Donating your car not only alleviates the stress of ownership but also breathes new life into our community. Funds generated from your generous vehicle donation go directly towards supporting local initiatives such as family services or outreach programs, ensuring that each donation creates a ripple effect of positive change right here in our artistic neighborhood.
