Donate your car to the National Kidney Foundation for a Year-End Tax Deduction!
Well, a crane actually…..but it could happen. If you want to watch them do it, come to HeeHaw Farms in Pleasant Grove this Saturday, October 23rd at 1:00 p.m. (exit 275 for North Bound I-15 Traffic/ exit 278 for South Bound I-15 traffic). The 1996 Pontiac 6000 being smashed by pumkins (hey, isn’t that the name of a rock band?) will be donated to the Kidney Kars program! Come have some Halloween fun ! See you there.
Thank you so much to C. Gunderson of South Jordan for the gorgeous black 2000 Porsche Boxter. It had a pricey blown transmission, but was in overall good shape. With a little help from our friends at IAA (Insurance Auto Auctions) the Kidney Foundation of Utah was still able to sell it for more than $6,000 bucks at a Las Vegas Auto Auction. That money will go straight into Utah medical research, and into the hands of kidney patients who are in desperate financial times because of the cost of their medical treatments, medications, and transportation to and from dialysis. That was one gorgeous car– and a most generous Kidney Kars donation! We are so grateful Ms. Gunderson for your humanitarian!
Thank you to the Salt Lake City donor who gave a 1984 MASERATI QUATTROPORTE to Kidney Kars! In 1984 this car sold for around $57,000. As a collectible, today it’s worth around $10,000. What a great donation! What a great tax deduction for the donor! Just think of what this means to kidney patients and medical research!
We cannot thank you enough for helping us make our car payment so me and my son Beau can get to dialysis. We both dialyze at the same clinic and live together to cut living and transportation costs. This April, I filed my income taxes, claiming Beau as a dependent. The E-file was kicked back saying my son’s Social Security number was tied to another tax return which claimed working income, a spouse, and a dependent! Someone had stolen his social security! They froze his Medicare and other disability benefits. We are still fighting to clarify his identity–in the meantime, we still have to pay our same bills–including the car payment for the car that gets us both to dialysis. Bless you for your help in our great time of need. It is so frustrating to be at the mercy of the ‘powers that be’. If we were healthy, could work, and not have to rely on anyone for our care it would be different. But the kindness and mercy you have shown us will not soon be forgotten by us. God Bless you. Sincerely, Pat M., Sandy, UT
