What can I donate? and How much will I receive as a tax deduction for my used car?

We accept vehicle donations, RVs, boats, trailers, motorcycle, jet ski, bus and snowmobiles.


The IRS allows you to claim a tax deduction of:

a) The value of your vehicle up to $500. It is up to the donor to determine the fair      market value.
b) The amount we sell your vehicle for - if it is more than $500.

Kars-4-kids is a classified 501(c)(3) charity organization. You can check with your tax advisor or accountant to determine the amount of your benefit.
The deduction is of value only if the donor itemizes his or her deductions. 
For a more detailed overview the IRS publishes a Donors Guide to Car Donation.

My vehicle hasn't run in years. Can I still donate my car?

 Yes, most car donations are accepted, running or not (exceptions include older cars whose value would not offset the cost of towing). To find out if we
can accept your vehicle donation, please call 1.877.KARS4KIDS, or fill out the online car donations form.
