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.

Volunteer Leadership Development

We carefully select the most devoted volunteers who we train and instill with the skills and mentorship model we have perfected for over 30 years in our Volunteer Leadership Program. Through the volunteers‘ self sacrifice and devotion the children receive the nurturing they need to flourish. In the process, the teenagers of today are being groomed to be responsible leaders of tomorrow.

Kars4Kids Small Grants

Our small grants program is a vehicle through which we can impact communities we don't service directly by providing support to worthy local charities doing comparable work to our own. YouthServe in Birmingham is a shining example of the kind of nonprofit we like to partner with through a grant.

Questions about donating a car in AL

We’ve got answers to all your questions about car donation in AL, 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.

AL fun factsWhat does it mean when one car model is donated again and again? Does it mean the car is popular or so unpopular that people donate them as quickly as possible-or perhaps it says something about the generosity of those who choose that make? At any rate, the most donated car in the state of Alabama is the Ford Taurus.

Any information on this page related to state laws and title requirements is correct to the best of our knowledge. But because this kind of information is liable to change, please check with your local motor vehicle authority for current guidelines and requirements.
