TrueCar, Inc., has pledged to donate $100, up to $11,000, to Disabled American Veterans (DAV) for every meeting set during National Automobile Dealers Association (NADA) last month.

It has also randomly picked four dealerships to win a $2,500 donation for a nonprofit organization of their choice. In total, TrueCar committed to donating $21,000.

"TrueCar has a shared value with our dealer partners to positively impact the communities in which we do business," Mike Darrow, CEO & president at TrueCar, told PR Newswire. "This giveaway is extremely meaningful to our organization, and we are honored to support our dealers and military community through this momentous opportunity with our long-time partner, DAV."

The four dealerships and their nonprofit of choice are: AutoNation Ford Scottsdale (Arizona), Phoenix Children's Hospital; Nalley Nissan of Cumming (Georgia), Humane Society of Forsyth County; Sterling McCall Toyota (Houston), Kids Meals; and Trophy Nissan (Mesquite, Texas), Sharing Life.

Trophy Nissan is also making TrueCar proud with its plans to match the $2,500 donation from TrueCar to Sharing Life, leading to a total donation of $5,000 to the Texas-based nonprofit organization. "Sharing Life exists to demonstrate compassion by effectively and efficiently providing dignified, benevolent services to families in need in Southeastern Dallas, Rockwall and Kaufman County," according to its website.
