Wish this website would allow me to give zero stars. We read about how they take used computers and refurbish them for children. With schools closed now we really wanted to help. We were promised a tax receipt. We mailed (at our expense) three expensive computers to these scam artists and never heard another word. Not even a thank you. Lesson learned!
I have tried for a few months to donate several valuable items to the giving center and even had a pickup scheduled. I cleaned everything and had all the items ready and they did not come and did not call me. They emailed me last minute and said I did not have “enough” items to donate even though everything was already approved and set up to get picked up and then did not give me another pick up date. I have reached out to them several times without any response. Now I have all the items sitting in my living room with no where to go. They seemed like cool people but they’re just a flaky “charity”
Nice folks but totally ineffective. I tried, for months, to donate $US5-6000 of late 18th and 19th century small antiques - without success. Their East Coast pickup person called multiple times, mostly whined about how hard it was to schedule a pickup! Then, misread his own notes, missed my pickup, and wasn't sure he could come back - he did not. I never worked so hard to give away valuable objects with no result!
Giving Center has got to be one of my favorite charities out there! I found them randomly when I searched how to donate my condo. Long story short, I had a condo that had been sitting on the market for a long time. I got tired of listing, waiting, and showing it to no avail. So after contacting Giving Center, I filled out the donor form and literally a day later I was contacted! Their representatives are incredibly nice, and very helpful. They walked me through the process, did the paperwork for me, and within a week it was done! Since donating the property, I've already received my tax documents and it was almost equivalent to what I would have sold it for! The tax benefits outweighed the extensive sale process and I couldn't be anymore happy!
Upon speaking with their live representatives, I also learned that they handle a lot of other donations! You can donate a boat, donate aircraft, donate a car, and so much more! Down the road, I plan on utilizing them again. I highly recommend Giving Center, they are an absolute gem!
Giving Center was incredibly easy to donate with! I had an old vehicle sitting in my driveway and they went above and beyond in helping me donate it!
The ladies there walked me through the process, even filled out the donor form for me, and scheduled a transporter within a week! I highly recommend donating with Giving Center! They not only take cars, but you can donate a boat, donate real estate, donate collectibles, donate aircraft, and so much more! I especially love the fact that they offer pickups nationwide!
Next I'm going to clear up some room and donate my collection of comic books that have been collecting dust in the closet! If you're looking to speak to a real person, have your stuff picked up at no cost to you, and your tax paperwork taken care of for you, then Giving Center is the charity for you!
Giving Center is absolutely amazing! I had an old boat I was no longer wanting and they took it in! The donation process is so incredibly easy, all I had to do was submit my information and they called me the very next day. We discussed the details, got them pictures, and within just a few days, had a transporter scheduled to pickup my boat!
The staff there are professional, courteous, and fast! The transporter scheduled the pickup with me to best fit my schedule. Took the vessel and gave me their donation receipt. Within just a few weeks i even had my tax documents sent to me!
If you're looking for a good cause, fast pickup at no cost to you, and friendly representatives look no further! Giving Center is a gem, and I fully support their mission!
Had a great experience with Giving Center. I collect memorabilia/collectibles which are of great value to me, so I wanted to donate a portion of them to a credible charity that has knowledge and appreciation for these types of items. After filling out their online donation form, they contacted me the next morning with detailed instructions. After shipping my items, I received an 8283 tax document from them within a few days. The process was quick & simple; I'll definitely use them again when I'm ready to part with the rest of my treasures.
Here's the link if you want to check them out. They seem to accept all different types of donations https://www.givingcenter.org/.
I made a car donation to them and the whole process went perfectly. I was worried I was in for a long drawn out process. They were very quick and efficient! They contacted me the same day I submitted my information and their staff was out here to pick up my vehicle within a week. They were also very accommodating and put together a weekend pick up since I was unavailable during weekdays. Overal great experience!
