Help A Local Child Through The Wheels For Wishes Boat Donation Program!

 

We accept cars and more when helping Make-A-Wish kids. Instead of car donation try boat donation! That old boat sitting in your yard can help make life better for a local child. You can save money on insuring a boat that hardly ever gets used and help local children's charities at the same time. 

Donate a boat to help Make-A-Wish kids like Areice get their wishes granted!

How To Donate A Boat?

Boats are great when you're out on the water, but they can be stressful to tow around, store and take care of. Most of us don't have enough storage room for a big boat, which means paying for space at a marina or leaving your boat outside exposed to the elements. With growing concern over transferring invasive species from lake to lake, it's also more difficult to take your boat anywhere you want these days.

  • Step One: Call us at 1-855-278-9474, or fill out our online donation form.
  • Step Two: If you filled out our online donation form you will receive a call from us within 24 hours to schedule the pickup.
  • Step Three: Once your boat is picked up, you will receive a receipt to use on your tax return for that year.

Your boat brought you and your family good memories of fishing, tubing and cruising along the shoreline. When it's time to move on, put your boat to good use by donating it to Wheels For Wishes!

We'll help get your boat donation started

Donate your boat to Wheels For Wishes for a hassle-free process that provides you with great benefits. Not only does our boat donation help a local child, but you will also be eligible for an itemized charitable tax deduction on your federal tax return. If you have questions, our vehicle donation FAQs can help explain the process, or call your tax advisor for more information on how to fully deduct your charitable boat donation. We make donating your boat so easy, and we'll take care of all the work for you. Wheels For Wishes picks the boat up and handles all the details.

We make sure the funds from your boat donation go to a good cause. When you donate a boat, it's a whole lot easier than putting an expensive ad in the paper, taking repeated phone calls, showing your boat off to multiple people, and haggling over the sales price. We pick up the boat free of charge to you and use the proceeds to benefit local children's charities. Donate a boat today to make a difference in the life of a local child who has a critical illness or is facing long hospital stays!
