A car donation to Ruff Patches supports animal rescue and encourages the transition of animal shelters so that, ultimately, Los Angeles will become a no-kill city. Every pet deserves a loving home and by educating the public, families who adopt rescue animals will be better prepared for dog or cat ownership, which means fewer end up in shelters.
Their mission is to rescue abused, abandoned and unwanted animals and adopt them into loving permanent homes. Ruff patches also aims to provide support to other animal rescue/ advocacy organizations in their efforts to save homeless animals

Car donations are considered by the Internal Revenue Service and the State to be COMPLETELY TAX DEDUCTIBLE.
This means that the price your car is sold for will be tax deductible. Both you and your non-profit will receive IRS Form 1098-C within 30-50 days of the sale of your vehicle, making the transaction transparent to all parties. Plus, we do all the work. There’s no standing in lines at the DMV or dealing with the paperwork to transfer the title.
