Are you looking for the best way to get your hands off your old sailing dinghy that’s just taking up space in your backyard? When you hand it over to us at Kids Car Donations, you’ll have the opportunity to dispose of it in the most convenient way – without spending a single dime! Plus, you’ll also enable our IRS-certified 501(c)3 nonprofit partners to reach out to more kids who are being confronted with life-threatening diseases and life-limiting disabilities.

You don’t have to get stuck with a dinghy that you no longer want. Likewise, those suffering boys and girls in your area don’t have to spend a fortune to receive the best quality of healthcare. Deciding to join our dinghy donations program will get both things done – and even more!

How Your Dinghy Donation Will Help Ailing Kids

We will auction off your donation and use the proceeds to support the programs of our nonprofit partners. These charities promote children’s care, advocacy, research, and education. Their goal is not simply to cure illness but to ensure the complete well-being of each child, taking into consideration that ailing children require complex care tailored to their unique needs.

These nonprofits also work tirelessly to seek new and innovative solutions and treatments for children grappling with serious ailments. They also have programs that seek to alleviate the pain and trauma of children during their hospital confinement and improve the lives of those battling major diseases by spreading positivity.

How Our Donation Process Works

To make it easy and worthwhile for our donors to team up with us, we’ve created a seamless donation process, which even first-time donors should find incredibly stress-free. Our goal is to provide you with the best giving experience you could possibly have.

Check out our quick and painless donation process in our dinghy donations program:

1. Contact us.

Provide us with the basic information about you and the dinghy you’re donating by giving us a call at 866-634-8395 or by filling out our online donation form.

2. Schedule your dinghy’s free pickup.

We’ll verify your given information and call you back right away to ask for your preferred date, time, and place for your dinghy’s FREE pickup. We’ll ask a licensed towing company to haul off your dinghy. In return for your donation, you’ll receive a towing receipt from us. This releases you from all liability on the dinghy you donated from that point forward.

3. Receive your tax-deductible receipt.

We’ll coordinate with one of our vehicle liquidation vendors to have your dinghy displayed at an auction house. We’ll try our best to have your dinghy sold at its highest possible price to maximize the tax deduction you can claim from it. We’ll mail to you your 100-percent tax-deductible sales receipt a few days following the sale of your dinghy.

Reasons Why Donating Your Dinghy Makes Sense

It’s only normal for first-time donors to have a slew of questions about the ins and outs of dinghy donations. One of them is about the benefits they’ll get from their donations. Here are some of those perks:

Donating is much better than selling.

Did you know that your dinghy begins to lose its value if it’s on the market for more than 45 days? While it’s listed for sale, you’ll still have to spend for its maintenance, insurance, brokerage fees, storage, and possible costly repairs. On the other hand, the moment you hand over your dinghy to Kids Car Donations, all these things will become our responsibility.

You’ll receive a huge tax credit.

The return on your charitable contribution can spell great savings for you in the next tax season.

We’ll pay for towing.

We’ll handle all towing arrangements and we’ll even pay for the towing services.

You’ll feel wonderful for doing something that will help save young lives.

You’ll feel fully satisfied knowing that your participation in our dinghy donations program will bring health and well-being to kids who are battling serious health issues.
