P.S. we didn’t make these up! They're all real donors, with real experiences.

Mark C.
The best experience for donating your car
By Mark C., Charles Town  WV (I donated a 1998 Chevrolet Blazer)

This was the best experience for donating your car. They picked up the car and handled everything. The paper for taxes came in the mail and easy to use. I would do this again.

William H.
Easy, absolutely no problems
By William H., Talcott  WV (I donated a 2000 Toyota Camry)

Easy this time, pick up was much faster, driver very polite, absolutely no problems

Scott S.
Didn't involve much time or effort on my part
By Scott S., Kearneysville  WV (I donated a 1999 Dodge Grand Caravan)

Very simple transaction that didn't involve much time or effort on my part. Our old van simply disappeared while we were at work!

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.

Kars4kids Mentor Program
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.

Back-to-School Giveaways

Teens are proud of having the latest clothes. It‘s the same with back to school items. It‘s no good coming to school with last year‘s dingy backpack. That‘s why Kars4Kids works with local officials to provide backpacks to hundreds of teens. It‘s a fun occasion with food and music too, so teens can feel good about going back to school.

Making Family Time

The day-to-day struggle to earn a living means that sometimes families don't have time to spend time together. We make it possible with our weekend retreats, to give families a chance to recharge and restore that loving dynamic. Family togetherness is a gift we can only give with your generous assistance.

Questions about donating a car in WV

We’ve got answers to all your questions about car donation in WV, whether you want to know more about the process or anything related to your car’s title.
The amount you can claim from the IRS as a tax deduction depends on the category applicable to you:
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.
Kars4Kids accepts donations of virtually all kinds of vehicles, including but not limited to: car, snow plow, boat, bus, jet ski, truck, airplane, van, trailer, motorcycle, ATV, tractor, commercial, fleet and RV (motor home) donations. Sorry, no kids.
Yes, we can usually pick up a vehicle without a title in West Virginia . We may need the registered owner to sign some paperwork for us.
In almost all scenarios Kars4kids will apply for the new title for you. We'll handle all the paperwork and pay the title fees too.
If you'd prefer you may apply for a new title on your own. Here's how:
If the title is lost and the vehicle has never had a lien, the vehicle owner must complete an Affidavit of Duplicate Title for a Vehicle or Watercraft (DMV-4-TR), supply a copy of their driver's license, the registration card, if available, and the title fee of $10 to get a duplicate title issued. You can mail your completed application to:

Here is how to transfer ownership of your car when you donate in West Virginia:
Remove the license plates and registration card from the vehicle before it is towed. The license plates can either be transferred to another vehicle or sent along with the registration and brief note that the car's been donated to the Division of Motor Vehicles. You'll submit a completed Sold vehicle affidavit to the DMV 60 days after donating. Don't forget to cancel insurance coverage on the vehicle after it's picked up.
