Donate Your Car

Do you have a car that you don’t need any more and would like to donate? BVA is a listed non-profit with CAREASY.org – a 501(c)3 organization that makes it simple for you to donate your car to your favorite non-profit.

To donate your car, visit CAREASY.org or call 855-500-RIDE (7433) and choose the Blinded Veterans Association as the recipient of the donation.

RoundUp App

RoundUp is an app that allows donors to connect their debit or credit card(s) and round up their purchases to the nearest dollar, donating to the non-profit of their choice. It is easy to set up and control the amount you are donating each much.

Sign up here or by going to RoundUpApp.com and selecting the Blinded Veterans Association as the recipient of your donations.

Qualified Charitable Distributions

If you are 70.5 or older, giving from your IRA can help reduce your taxable income — and for those over 73 who must take a Required Minimum Distribution (RMD), an IRA gift is a simple way to fulfill it! By using the link below to give from your IRA, you can auto-complete your paperwork and we can track your gift to send you the proper tax receipts. Give from my IRA.

Stocks

Donating stocks allows you to avoid capital gains tax and often take a charitable deduction for the full value of the asset. Use this tool to donate stock so we can track your gift, send you the correct receipt, and ensure you can get the tax savings you deserve. If you would prefer to make your donation through your broker, access our transfer information from the link above to notify the Blinded Veterans Association about your gift.

Donor-Advised Funds

Donor-Advised Funds (DAFs) are investment accounts for the sole purpose of supporting charitable organizations today. This tool automatically links with your DAF, allows you to recommend how you’d like your gift to be used, and notifies the Blinded Veterans Association of your intentions. Using the link below to grant from your DAF also saves us a lot of time, so thank you! It’s a great way to ensure consistent financial support while saving cash for immediate needs. Give from my DAF.

Cryptocurrency

We now accept donations of Ethereum, Bitcoin, and other cryptocurrencies! This gives you one more way to fund our work and can provide you with extra tax benefits. Give Cryptocurrency.
