Donate wheels

Turn that unwanted car, boat or motorcycle into a valuable donation with KKFI's Car Donation Program. When you make a donation your vehicle is resold at auction, and the proceeds go to 90.1FM KKFI. Effective January 1, 2005, the law allows a deduction equal to the gross proceeds from the sale of the donated vehicle. You will be notified of the sale price of the car.

To donate a car or for more information, call:

What can I donate?
90.1FM KKFI accepts cars, trucks and recreational vehicles. When you make an automobile donation your vehicle is resold at auction and the proceeds of the sale go to 90.1FM KKFI. Most vehicles are accepted, except those that are heavily damaged.

Are car donations tax-deductible?
Yes, your donation qualifies as a charitable deduction on your federal income tax return, because 90.1FM KKFI is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization.

How do I donate a car?
Call 877-308-2408 to make your donation.

Have ready:

the title to your car
location of your car
general condition of your car

This information assists us in scheduling appropriate pick-up or towing arrangements.

My car does not run. Can I still donate it?
Even if your car does not operate, we will attempt to make arrangements to have it picked up.

Will you pick up my car?
A tow truck will be sent to pick up your vehicle.

The driver will need:

the car keys
the title to your car
your signature authorizing the tow

A tow receipt will be given to you by the driver verifying that your vehicle was received on behalf of 90.1FM KKFI.

How do I estimate the value of my car?
The IRS allows you to take a charitable tax deduction on your federal income tax form for the fair market value of your donated vehicle. The condition of your car affects the fair market value.

Take a look at these free publications:

“Determining the Value of Donated Property”
IRS Publication 561
How to determine the value of your donation
“Noncash Charitable Contributions”
IRS Form 8283
If the fair market value of the vehicle is more than $500 you will want to complete the IRS Form 8283. Access the form on the IRS Forms Site.
