We’ve donated two vehicles this year to my old high school, the papists brain washers they are. At least I know my money is going to brain wash the next generation of kids like I was.  
If it was good enough for me…etc.

I did, however, feel incredibly sorry for the poor tow truck driver, who had to drive from the Toledo area all the way up nearish Flint to pick up our POS each time.

Zumba, thanks but figuring the amount of the deduction is the easy part I’d already done, the part I need help on is defining a “write-off” and how to determine if my tax situation would allow me to see any savings using that write off. I’m still listening to suggestions, thanks to everyone.

Omni,

I think Meals on Wheels is a national organization.

They help a lot of elderly and shut-ins get at least one decent meal per day. I don’t know if your car would be accepted but with the growing elderly population it might be a good place to look.
