All donations may be eligible for a tax deduction on one’s federal income tax return. Keep America Beautiful’s vehicle donation program accepts almost any vehicle, including cars, trucks, boats, motorcycles and recreational vehicles. Regardless of the vehicle’s running condition, they still have value through continued use as an operable car, as repair parts that can extend the life of a car or by recycling their steel parts. "Taking old cars off the road can help the environment by recycling and saving energy,” said Greg Crawford, executive director of the Steel Recycling Institute and a KAB board member. ”Donating these cars can directly help programs such as Keep America Beautiful by providing an additional source of funding. It’s a win-win for sustaining the environment.” A KAB vehicle donation through 1Car1Difference helps provide funds for KAB and its national network of nearly 600 affiliates and additional partnering organizations to create clean, beautiful public places, reduce waste and increase recycling, generate positive impact on local economies and inspire generations of environmental stewards. To learn more about the vehicle donation program, including how to donate and answers to other frequently asked questions, please contact Mary Aly, director, Keep America Beautiful’s Cars to Donate program, at 203.659.3018 or at ; or call 1Car1Difference directly at 855.426.2474; or visit [kab.org/cardonations](http://www.kab.org/cardonations). **About Keep America Beautiful** Keep America Beautiful is the nation’s leading nonprofit that brings people together to build and sustain vibrant communities.
