Here’s what our Rhode Island donors had to say about how donating went for them.
P.S. we didn’t make these up! They're all real donors, with real experiences.
We found the donation experience quite effortless. Not only were we thrilled to find a way to dispose of our poor, damaged Honda, but to be able to do this with so little effort and imagine it could be helpful for others made this truly a positive. . .
Happy to help out such a good organization! It has been great dealing with you guys
Excellent. I donated two cars in 2011. The cars were picked up on time, the initial paperwork was not difficult at all, and the followup tax value receipt from Kars was timely and fair.
How your car donation helps
Our charity programs are the essence of what we do. We are thankful to be able to give back to many local communities across North America and to bring educational opportunities to so many children, with the help of our sister charity Oorah. We're a registered nonprofit Jewish organization. Learn about what we do and see our charity programs here.
The Kars4Kids Vision
Kars4Kids‘ vision is to give our children the ability to succeed in life. 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.
Making Holidays Real
Some kids don‘t have much holiday fun due to economic or family difficulties. At our yearly holiday retreat Kars4Kids steps in to offer kids the rich holiday experience they‘d never thought they‘d have. Along with their mentors and families, kids are served up a menu of constant entertainment in a spacious, well-appointed facility in upstate New York.
Building Whole Children
When school is said and done, children still need to move forward. During the year, Kars4Kids pairs children with mentors to help them with their studies and to build their self-esteem. In the summer, children get a fun summer camp experience, led by specially-trained staff members who offer children warmth, inclusion, respect, and guidance.
Questions about donating a car in RI
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.
In the following counties, you’ll just need to provide proof of ownership. Just provide a proof of ownership (such as copy of registration or insurance card): Bristol, Kent, Newport, Providence, Washington

Everyone hopes to get a nice-sized tax deduction when donating a car. One lucky Rhode Islander received the highest tax deduction in that state when his 1998 Regal Boat sold for $13,500.
