One might always wonder why you would want to donate a car..??..It sounds to be such a big thing. But actually it isn’t. On one hand if you donate a car to some charity house, you will tax deductions by the government. So donating a car does not sound to be such a bad option now. On donating a car you make a big difference in someone’s life. It is definitely a noble work. So one should always do it whenever you get a chance.
There are certain things you will need to know before you make a car donation • Choose a charitable organisation or institute where you want to donate your car. • Choose an organisation which you know closely or are related to or whose motive or aim to believe in. You will atleast be sure that your donation is going into good hands and you are not being cheated. • The charitable organisation to which you are making your donation should be recognised by the government else you will not be eligible for any kind of tax relief for your donation. • Make a list of organisations that take car donation in your area. Try to call them up to enquire about the donations. Make sure that they take any car models. Generally the charity houses have no choices on the car models but some of them do. So make sure you have all these details with you before making your choice. • Many of the charitable organisations have 24×7 helpline service. You can call them up for any kind of queries. Even online services are available. Car donations can also be done over the phone. • Generally the car donated is used for 3 main purposes. Firstly, either they are repaired and to needy people. Secondly, they put these cars for auctions. This money is raised for cancer patients and some noble causes. Lastly if the car is in good condition then it is used by the organisation itself. • Before the car is donated, you will need the title of the car. If you do not have it, some organisations have sources to find and replace them. You will also have to estimate the car. An expert can do this. • The amount for tax deduction depends on the use of the car by the organisation. If sold or auctioned, that amount will the used for tax relief else the estimate of the donor is used. • Try to encourage other people to donate their cars too instead of selling. You get tax relief and some innocent man is benefited.
