Motorless Boats Still Make Great Donations

Many donors assume a boat without a motor isn't worth donating. In reality, boat hulls and frames still hold value and can fund meaningful veteran support programs. Don't let a missing motor stop you from making a difference.

Tax Deduction for Your Donation

As a 501(c)(3) nonprofit, Cars for Veterans provides a tax receipt for every donation. The IRS allows you to deduct the fair market value or the sale price of your vehicle, whichever applies. Consult your tax advisor for personalized guidance on maximizing your deduction.

Disclosure: Cars for Veterans is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit. After operating costs (towing, processing, title transfer, and administration), a portion of the net proceeds from each donated vehicle benefits veteran programs.
