 Donate
your car and show your support of 4 THE WORLD!
Interested in donating your vehicle to an organization you believe in? It's easy
to make a contribution that supports 4 THE WORLD!
Here's how it works:
• Just call (888) 556-9405 or email at your convenience admin@4theworld.org to
speak to a 4 The World Vehicle Donation Representative.
• Our Representative will schedule a pickup that's convenient for you,
and provide you with confirmation of your donation.
• If you donate your car after January 1, 2005, we will mail you a
confirmation that states how much money your vehicle sold for at auction. This
amount is what you actually claim on the itemized tax return.
• According to the tax law effective January 1, 2005, if the claimed
value of the donated vehicle exceeds $500, the taxpayer is limited to the gross
proceeds of the sale.
Frequently Asked Questions
What can I donate?
We accept most vehicles and
vessels including but not limited to cars, trucks, trailers,
boats and RV's.
My car hasn't run in years. Can I still donate it?
Yes,
we are able to accept most vehicles running or not (exceptions include
older vehicles whose value would not offset the cost of towing). To
find out if we can accept your vehicle, please complete and submit
our online donation form.
What do I need to donate my vehicle?
We would like
the title to the vehicle, but if you do not have it please call
us anyway. It is possible that other arrangements may be made.
Can you pick up vehicles in all 50 states?
Yes,
we are able to pick up accepted vehicles in the continental U.S.
and Hawaii.
How will my car be picked up?
We will arrange to
have your vehicle towed away by a professionally licensed, bonded
and insured towing company.
How long will it take to pick up my car?
We will
arrange for a towing company to contact you via telephone within
three to four business days at the latest. If you need your car
picked up sooner, please let us know as we are oftentimes able to accommodate
rush orders as well.
Is my donation tax deductible?
Yes, vehicle and
vessel donations made to bona fide charitable organizations are
tax deductible to the full extent of the law. However, individual
tax situations may vary so please check with a tax professional to
determine what if any tax benefit you may receive from a tax deductible
donation.
How does my tax deduction work?
The IRS allows you,
the taxpayer, to claim a tax deduction of (a) the value of your
vehicle up to $500 or (b) if we sell the vehicle for more than
$500 we will mail you a postcard with that value for your tax purposes.
For additional information, the IRS provides a Donor's Guide to Car
Donations which sets forth the manner in which the IRS requires you
to determine the value of your donated property. |
