   "Finally a donation center
   that cares about my needs,
   It was nice to give my car to
   my favorite Faith based
   organization. I would
   recommend National Charity
   Support to all my friends."

   " My company plans to
   donate all our out of
   service vehicles, it
   helps the community
   and its easier then
   selling them to strangers.
   We donated 14 cars so far
   and it has been great!"

    "My donation is now helping
   to build a well in Africa,
   That’s a lot better than
   sitting in my driveway
   collecting dust."

WHY CARING CARS IS DIFFERENT THAN OTHER DONATION CENTERS

What makes us different?

“A picture is worth a thousand words”

Caring Cars - Car Donation California

On acceptable vehicles we make significant material improvements, which in simple terms means we recondition the vehicle which in turn raises the deduction to the donor, generally our system provides a 30-60% higher deduction.

What makes us different from any other Vehicle Donation Program is:

We work with highly experience volunteers and industry professionals who use our proprietary Predictive Asset Reconditioning Evaluator (P.A.R.E) to systematically evaluate the donations, and whom are in charge of making the improvements to the donation at no cost to the donor. This usually allows us to provide the donor with the appraised value of the vehicle, which represents to the donor highest tax deduction possible in comparison of what it was worth it at the time of the donation. At the same time, the vehicle is going to produce a greater benefit for the charity that funds their good works to the community.

We don't use wholesale auctions (which may be a non deductible process according to IRS rulings) or third parties to sell the vehicles. We have our own sales channels that produce the highest net return possible.

As always you can choose the charity you want to support, you can direct the funds to any non-profit organization, including churches, schools, libraries, foundations, health research institutes, animal causes, veterans organizations and more, or even a charity of your choice.

* Excerpt from IRS publication 4302, A Charity's Guide to Car Donations:

"If a charity intends to make significant intervening use of or materially improve the car, the donor generally can deduct its fair market value.

“Significant intervening use means that a charity must actually use the car to substantially further its regularly conducted activities, and the use must be considerable. There is no significant intervening use if the charity's use is incidental or not intended at the time of the contribution.

“Material improvement includes a major repair or improvement that results in a significant increase in the car's value. Cleaning, minor repairs, and routine maintenance are not material improvements.

“The charity must provide the donor with a contemporaneous written acknowledgement of the donation. Without an acknowledgement, the donor cannot deduct the contribution.
