Description

Donating a vehicle is a free process that’s as simple as giving away an item or a piece of clothing. Donations enable community garages to offer low-cost transportation solutions to people with low incomes.

Free Program

This program, which helps address mobility challenges, is completely free for both the donor and the certified garage, which pays no membership fees to connect to the platform and receive car donations.

Network of community-minded garages

The “Donnez votre voiture” network currently includes 30 certified solidarity garages spread across the entire French mainland (excluding Corsica and the Overseas Departments, Regions, and Collectivities).

Tax deduction: in addition to helping those in need, the donation allows the donor to benefit from a tax deduction (for individuals, calculated based on the value of the donated car

In exchange for your donation, you receive a tax deduction, the calculation method for which varies from one certified garage to another. Specifically, donations are valued based on the vehicle’s market value minus the cost of repairs required to restore it to working condition. You may then claim this amount on your tax return the year following the donation. Businesses: Your tax credit will amount to 60% of this amount. *The total value of donations used to calculate the tax credit cannot exceed, in a single fiscal year, a limit of €20,000 or 0.5% of the donating company’s annual pre-tax revenue, whichever is higher. Individuals: Your tax credit will amount to 66% of this amount. https://entreprendre.service-public.fr/vosdroits/F22263
