At Revive Rides, we believe in the power of community and collective action. By donating your vehicle through payroll-deduction charitable programs, you can create a consistent and impactful way to support our mission. This innovative approach not only allows you to contribute a portion of your paycheck to Revive Rides but also complements your generosity with a one-time vehicle donation, amplifying your overall impact.
Many employers offer automatic payroll deductions that can go directly to donor-advised funds or specific nonprofits like Revive Rides. You designate a percentage or dollar amount from each paycheck, while your one-time vehicle donation can be processed separately, giving you the benefit of a comprehensive annual-giving report to track your contributions. Let’s make a difference together—one paycheck and one vehicle at a time!

×Impact multiplier
Donating through payroll deduction provides a unique opportunity to enhance your charitable giving. If your employer offers Section 125 cafeteria plan benefits, your contributions may be made pre-tax, effectively increasing your overall donation power. Even without this benefit, contributions are generally made on a post-tax basis. By combining payroll deductions with a one-time vehicle donation, you not only maximize your contributions but also increase the possibility of itemizing deductions on your tax return, potentially qualifying for greater tax benefits. For those whose employers match charitable contributions, your impact can be multiplied significantly!
