Donate Your Vehicle

United Way of the Yampa Valley partners with CARS to make donating your vehicle easy and hassle-free. You may qualify for a tax deduction while supporting a cause that is near and dear to your heart. Vehicle donation pick-up is always free to you and most vehicles can be picked up within 24-72 hours.

Cryptocurrency

The IRS classifies cryptocurrencies as property, so cryptocurrency donations to 501(c)(3) charities receive the same tax treatment as stocks. Donating cryptocurrency is a non-taxable event, meaning you do not owe capital gains tax on the appreciated amount and can deduct it on your taxes.

FreeWill

Designating a planned gift is a meaningful way to show your dedication and appreciation to UWYV’s mission while also accommodating your own personal, financial, estate-planning, and philanthropic goals. With early and smart planning, donors may actually increase the size of their total gift and/or reduce the tax burden on heirs.
