Donation of your car can be done to any non profit charity across the United States.

Automobile to be donated can include cars, trucks, SUV's, RV's, trailers, boats, motorcycle, Vans etc.

Most of the charities accept both running and non running automobiles but for the later one the potential value is first estimated.

Donating is a better way of creating a difference other than selling it which may be a difficult task.

Your car or truck received by the charity as a part of donation is sold in an auction where the highest bidder gets it and the charity the money which it can use for a noble cause.

For more information on tax benefits on vehicle donations see Publication 526, Charitable Contributions, Publication 561, Determining the Value of Donated Property, and Publication 4303, A Donor's Guide to Car Donations, available on IRS.gov

The Vehicle Donation Program helps support the services the charities provide in communities across America.
