I've given two cars to Catholic Charities in the last three years. One was a ford Taurus my son was driving at college that he let run out of oil(slight leak that escalated) . They have an 800 number to call. Asked a few questions, told me what to have ready for them and at the appointed date and time, took it away. Gave me a receipt for five hundred which was generous bc it had a blown motor.
Second adventure involved my old soccer mom car, a Honda Odyssey. Same senerio, Catholic Charities. The honda dealer offered me 3200 in trade, was given 2500 on my donation slip. Kept the other paper for backup documentation, but gave the car to charity. Thought I got more value from deduction plus the car was okay, just not what we needed(199,960 miles). Saw it on the street the other day so it had some value to someone (had my sons initials scratched in the side from a younger time).
