Contribute
The Accelerated Cure Project is recognized as a 501(c)(3)
charitable organization by the IRS, therefore your cash, stock, vehicle, or in-kind contribution may entitle
you to a tax deduction.
We are currently accepting cash contributions by check, credit card,
or wire transfer, contributions of publicly traded stock, and gifts of
goods or services that will help us with our business or events. We
are also able to use any volunteer time
you might wish to provide.
Contribute Vehicle
The Accelerated Cure Project can accept donations of some vehicles through
America's Car Donation Charities Center.
To donate a vehicle, contact us and we will
email, fax, or mail you a form to fill out (or you can download a PDF version
here). Return the filled out form to us
and we'll submit it to America's Car Donation Charities Center. They will take
care of all the details of arranging pickup, disposal or sale of the car, and
delivery of your contribution to us. For their services, they keep 30% of the
funds. You can get more details off their FAQ page.
Please be aware that due to changes in the used vehicle market and the
price of scrap metal having dropped to an all time low,
certain vehicles may not generate a high enough return to pay for
processing and towing. As a result, we are not able to accept every
vehicle donation. Should it be the case that we cannot accept your vehicle
donation we will notify you immediately after we've received your paperwork
and assessed the situation.
Beginning January 1, 2005 the IRS has new rules regarding tax deductions from
vehicle donations. Please familiarize yourself with them
here.
Matching Gift Programs
Many companies have "Matching Gift Programs" for charitable contributions made by their employees. This means that for every dollar an employee gives to an approved charitable organization, their employer will contribute some additional amount.
Please ask your human resources department if your company offers a program like this. If so, let us know and we'll help you fill out the necessary paperwork to multiply your contribution by taking advantage of this generous benefit.
