How To Select A Credible Charity Organization:

In order to donate a vehicle, you must have the name of a charity organization to whom you want the money to go to.

The most common type of tax-exempt nonprofit organization falls under category 501(c)(3), such as charitable, educational, or religious organizations.

You can visit http://apps.irs.gov/app/eos/mainSearch.domainSearchChoice=pub78&dispatchMethod=selectSearch

and use the “EO/Exempt Organizations Select Check” tool on the IRS website to verify if an organization is a charity qualified to receive tax-deductible contributions (Not all qualified organizations are listed in EO Select Check (Pub 78 data).

You must have the correct name of a charity organization in order to know the charity’s address (validation check).

Review the charity's financial reports to see how much of its money is used for charitable programs and administrative costs.

Ask the charity organization to make available for public inspection its application for tax exemption, its determination letter, and its most recent annual information returns (Forms 990).

Call and ask the organization if they can directly accept your car as donation.  If not, then we have to select from third party companies (middleman) that can pick the car up from your home, sell it and give the money to your designated charity organization.
