What documentation is required for a kidney foundation car donation?

What forms of identification are needed to donate an automobile to the kidney foundation?

When a kidney foundation car donation is made, it's important to follow the guidelines of the foundation. The documentation required depends on the type of vehicle and its condition.

Vehicle title or proof of ownership.

The vehicle title or proof of ownership is required to be submitted to the foundation before the car can be donated. This document will provide you with proof that you own the vehicle and show what type of car it is (i.e., sedan). If your state does not require this information for donations, then we recommend contacting your local DMV office for guidance on what documents must be submitted in order for them to approve your donation as well as any other questions about registering/registering your car in general.

Valid identification (driver's license, etc.).

You must provide a valid form of identification (driver's license, etc.). If you cannot present proper identification, your donation will be rejected.

  • Valid Identification: Your driver’s license or state issued ID card should be unexpired and current. The name on your driver's license must match the name on file with us at  kidney foundation car donation  of New England and/or any other organization we have listed as an acceptable reference point in our database.

  • Proof Of Age: You must be at least 18 years old in order to donate kidneys through this program; however, children under 16 years old may not be eligible for kidney donations because they may not have fully developed immune systems yet (in some cases).

Vehicle registration documents.

Vehicle registration documents are required for a kidney foundation car donation. The vehicle must be registered in your name, insured and registered in your state. If you have any questions about these requirements, please contact us at 1-800-777-2534 or email us at [email protected]

Odometer disclosure statement.

The odometer disclosure statement is a document that the donor signs and gives to the foundation. It is a statement that says the donor understands that the odometer reading is not necessarily an accurate reflection of the vehicle’s mileage.

This statement can be used by donors who have vehicles with excessive mileage on them or who want to avoid having any questions about their car donation after it has been processed by a nonprofit organization.

Any relevant service records.

Service records are important for the foundation to determine the value of your car, as well as its health and safety. This can be done by inspecting it in person or by sending someone who has experience with vehicles that have been used on the road.

Service records are also required because they will help you find out if you're eligible for a tax deduction or other benefits associated with donating your car to an organization like Charitable  Car donations.

Release of liability form.

The release of liability form is a legal document that you must have in order to donate your car. It’s not a contract; it’s not a promise; it's not an offer or guarantee to provide any services. If you sign this form without getting more information, then the next time you need help with your vehicle, they might be able to get away with charging whatever they want because there was no contract at all between them and yourself (and thus no way for them to prove anything).

IRS Form 1098-C (provided by the foundation).

The IRS Form 1098-C is a tax form that is provided by the foundation. It's required for all car donations and used to report the value of your vehicle or donation.

The IRS Form 1098-C can be found on the IRS website (https://www.irs.gov/publications/p454).

Donation acknowledgment receipt.

  • The donation acknowledgment receipt.

  • It should be signed by the donor, the foundation and dated. It should also be mailed to the foundation as soon as possible after donation so that it can be held in a secure location until needed for tax purposes or other reasons (such as if there are questions about who owns your car). Your health care provider may also require that you keep this receipt on file so they can refer back to it if they need additional documentation during future visits.

Any additional documentation requested by the foundation.

The foundation's guidelines for specific requirements are not always the same as the DMV's, IRS and other government agencies' guidelines.

The foundation also has a process for documenting your Donate a Car in order to help you get your driver's license back quickly after donating one of your kidneys. To find out more about this process, please visit our website at [website].

Consult the foundation's guidelines for specific requirements.

The guidelines for specific requirements are available on the foundation’s website. They can be found under “donation guidelines,” then “car donation process,” and finally “car donation requirements.”

The foundation does not require any documentation from you if you donate your vehicle as part of an existing program with them. However, if you want to participate in one of their programs (such as matching funds), then you will need to submit certain paperwork before submitting your vehicle donation application:

  • A completed medical history form (this is required regardless of whether or not someone has ever donated blood)

  • A driver's license copy showing current address
