Donate your old car!
Do you have a car or truck that no longer runs, that you no longer use, or that requires more maintenance than it's worth? You can donate the car to Chevrei Tzedek and get a tax deduction. The process is simple. Go to Chevrei Tzedek's CarEasy page and fill out the Donor Information. You can also review the FAQs further down that same page.
Chevrei Tzedek receives 85% of the proceeds of the sale, minus expenses. And you receive a tax receipt for the full value -- 100% of the sale price.
If you have questions about this process, please contact Elise Saltzberg.
If you have questions that Elise can't answer, call 855-500-7433 (855-500-RIDE) or email DonorSupport@careasy.org.
Thank you for considering a generous vehicle donation to benefit Chevrei Tzedek!
Donating appreciated securities, like stocks, to Chevrei Tzedek allows you to avoid capital gains taxes while receiving a tax deduction for the full market value of the securities. This is often more advantageous than selling securities and donating the cash proceeds. Contact the treasurers for more information and instructions.
You can include Chevrei Tzedek in your estate plans, in alignment with your wishes for us to continue to serve as the informal, participatory, welcoming, and egalitarian shul that we are. Doing so will provide major and stable financial help over the years, and it will make a significant difference in our future staffing and programming.
There are various ways to do this, and some of the simplest are:
- Name Chevrei Tzedek as one of the main or contingent beneficiaries in your employee life insurance policy.
- If you have an old paid-up life insurance policy that would have limited benefit for your heirs but may feel like the "right" amount to leave to a non-profit, you can name Chevrei Tzedek as the beneficiary.
- Update your IRA, 401(k), or 403(b) Retirement Account beneficiary forms and designate Chevrei Tzedek as a beneficiary (percentage or dollar amount).
- In your will, you can designate Chevrei Tzedek to receive a percentage or a fixed dollar amount of your estate.
- If your will identifies assets and property to be allocated to specific designated beneficiaries, it could state that anything remaining in the estate after this distribution will be given to Chevrei Tzedek Congregation.
There are more complex trust & estate vehicles to provide part of your wealth to non-profit organizations. It is best to consult an attorney to discuss what is most suitable for your situation and preferences. Contact our treasurers for more general information and possible references.
