Sadly, New Leaf Ethiopia suspended operations in 2023 due to civil strife and an unrelated tragedy in the personal life of its founder.  With gratitude for the many blessing of the project, we ardently pray for healing and a rapid return to peace.

VEHICLE DONATION FAQs

Your vehicle donation benefits New Leaf in the following ways:

1. It may be used as a fleet vehicle at our office.
2. It may be sold with proceeds to benefit New Leaf Ethiopia’s programs.

WHAT CAN I DONATE?

You can donate any vehicle with a clear title: cars, trucks, motorcycles, RVs, commercial vehicles, jet skis, motor homes, buses and even boats.

IS MY DONATION TAX DEDUCTIBLE?

Yes, New Leaf Ethiopia Foundation is a non-profit organization, so your donation would be tax deductible upon New Leaf’s private sale, sale at auction or the addition of the vehicle to New Leaf’s fleet. Your tax letter will contain information required by the IRS for your tax deduction.

WHAT IF MY CAR HASN’T RUN IN YEARS?

It may have salvage value and therefore will provide us with more funds.

IS THERE ANY COST TO ME?

No! We even pay for towing your vehicle.

WHAT DO I NEED TO DO TO MAKE A DONATION?

Have the title to the vehicle with you when you call. Answer a few questions about the vehicle, sign the title and schedule a pick-up time. We take care of the rest.

TO BEGIN YOUR VEHICLE DONATION PROCESS, CALL (209) 553-9313.

STOCK & WIRE TRANSFER GIFTS

Donating stock or mutual funds is a tax-wise approach for helping to ensure that New Leaf Ethiopia Foundation can continue Restoring Lives… one at a time.

IMPORTANT FACTS TO REMEMBER

We encourage you to consult your financial planner or tax advisor who can assist you in evaluating the tax advantages available to you when making a donation of appreciated securities.

We prefer to receive undesignated gifts, allowing for the greatest flexibility in responding to evolving needs and priorities, but will also accept gifts designated to a specific purpose.
