Q: Is my donation tax deductible?

The Kelly Blue Book web site is also helpful in determining the value of your
vehicle, or you can call us to get the Kelly Blue Book value.
If your donation is worth more than $5,000 then you will need an appraisal and a signed 8283 tax form for your tax purposes. We can arrange to have your vehicle valued by an independent appraiser and provide you with all the necessary documentation to properly claim your tax deduction without any cost to you.

A: We will arrange to have your vehicle picked up at your
convenience.

A: No. Hope for the Disabled Kids will pay for the cost to tow your vehicle donation.
