Car Donation, please help?????

[ronaldo12]

I was planning on donating my car to a charity called Kars4Kids, however when I was doing some research, I found that they may not be legitimate. How do I find out if they are worth donating to? If anyone has any experience with them please let me know, thanks!

Try your local Better Business Bureau for complaints against them, if they ever heard of them and whether they're registered as a place for charitable contributions.

I use them frequently, the site is often slow and buggy, but they keep a good archive.
3 reports in the last two years isn't all that bad, it looks like you get into a hard-sell timeshare deal after your "donation".

You can probably find a better charity.

. No personal experience with them.
However, to check any charitable organization, go to the BBB Wise Giving Alliance website (www.give.org) click on "Charity Reports", and it gives a list of organizations. I put the link below that goes straight to the list page.

Car Donation in New York gives very good information.
