We focus on educational, mentorship and year-round programs for our children, their families and their communities, looking at the big picture of our children‘s development and the environment they grow up in. We rely on thousands of volunteers to help us change the world, one child at a time.
Create Lasting Memories
Our well-appointed summer camp facilities offer children the chance of a lifetime. Here in the country, children learn about their surroundings, build lasting friendships, and take turns helping out with the exotic animals in our camp menagerie. Your support helps us offer generous scholarships to help children create precious memories of an unforgettable summer camp experience.
Building Our Youth
Kids learn a great deal at home and at school, but in the hours in between we're there to teach children leadership and life skills and a whole lot more. From vocational training, to becoming a youth leader or serving the community, we teach kids how to be fuller, rounder human beings and members of society.
Questions about donating a car in IN
The IRS allows you to claim a tax deduction of:
a) The value of your vehicle up to $500. It is up to the donor to determine the fair market value.
b) The amount we sell your vehicle for - if it is more than $500.
Kars4kids is a classified 501(c)(3) charity organization. You can check with your tax advisor or accountant to determine the amount of your benefit. The deduction is of value only if the donor itemizes his or her deductions. For a more detailed overview the IRS publishes a Donors Guide to Car Donation.
