How much tax deductions do I get if I donate my property to a nonprofit charity?

As a general rule, you are able to deduct the donated item's fair market value. Under the current tax law, charitable contributions of appreciated property held for more than one year are generally deductible at their fair market value, and the donor is not required to recognize any capital gains on the donated property. For further information, please consult with your tax advisor.

When can I claim my tax deduction?

A tax deduction can be claimed in the year that you make the donation. For further information, please consult with your tax advisor.

How do I determine the fair market value of my property?

The fair market value of your property must be determined in writing by a qualified appraiser. If your property is accepted, Family Solutions Foundation will cover the cost of the appraisal. If you have any questions or doubts about determining the fair market value of your property, it is best to consult with a qualified tax professional.
