Donate A Car In North Dakota; Benefiting Make-A-Wish North Dakota
North Dakota residents can make a big difference for kids who are facing critical illnesses. All it takes is a simple car donation to Wheels For Wishes. Our vehicle donation program benefits Make-A-Wish North Dakota, making it a great way to give back to a great cause.
You have the ability to help grant wishes like 7 year old Julia's wish to have a guitar and guitar lessons. All you have to do is donate your North Dakota car. Every car donation adds to the hundreds of thousands of dollars our vehicle donation program has raised for local kids, and it's an easy way to turn an unused vehicle into real joy for a family going through a hard time.
When you donate to the Wheels For Wishes car donation program, you help further our mission of making it possible for more kids to be happy and fulfilled. A medical condition often gets in the way of that, but the proceeds from our car donation program help Make-A-Wish North Dakota give these kids life-changing experiences. Wheels For Wishes has raised more than $125 million for Make-A-Wish chapters throughout the country since our founding in 2010.
"Thanks for your part which is so very vital to making a difference in lives of wish children. You help them heal in important, unique and super ways."
Billi Jo Zielinski, President and CEO of Make-A-Wish North Dakota
We Take All Kinds Of Vehicles
Cars aren't the only thing we accept. You can also donate your:
- Horse Trailer
- SUV
- RV
- Utility Trailer
- Watercraft
- Boat
- Motorcycle
- Snowmobile
- Truck or another utilitarian vehicle
Whatever the type, make, model, or mileage, we evaluate every vehicle on a case-by-case basis. It helps to have your title and VIN on hand when you call, but don't worry if some of that information is missing, our team can walk you through it. Farm equipment and SUVs used for transportation around your property are fair game too. If you're not sure whether your specific vehicle qualifies, give us a call, and someone on our team can answer any car donation questions you have.
North Dakota Car Donation Benefits You Too
In a state with so much open land, those who ranch or live on large properties can rest easy knowing there's a hassle-free way to get rid of these types of vehicles. Don't let an unwanted vehicle sit around on your property. Donate it instead and enjoy a great tax deduction.
Helping local kids is, of course, the best reason to donate your car, but there are plenty of other perks in store for a donor. Because we're a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization, you may qualify for a great tax break on your donation, as long as you itemize. When you choose Wheels For Wishes, you'll also receive free pick up of your vehicle from anywhere in North Dakota, and you'll skip the back and forth over selling price that comes with trying to sell a car yourself.
The Tax Benefits of Your North Dakota Car Donation
You can claim your tax deduction only if you itemize deductions on your return. We can't give tax advice, so talk to your own tax advisor about your specific situation and what it means for your taxes.
You never need an appraisal to donate. We send your tax receipt within 30 days of your vehicle's sale, showing the actual sale price, so you'll have your tax information well ahead of tax season regardless of your vehicle's market value going in.
Your deduction counts for the year you donate, even if your vehicle sells the following year, which makes late December a great time to donate if you're planning ahead for your return. If you have questions along the way, the IRS website has general guidance, or you can reach out for answers about our donation process.
