Frequently Asked Questions

What is a bargain sale donation?
A bargain sale donation is the sale of the vessel to ANGELCARE for cash plus a substantial tax deduction for the owner.

Why do most sellers and brokers have the opinion a donation won't work for them?
Most sellers and brokers are not familiar with bargain sale donations. The fact is, in most cases the net to the seller is equal to an outright sale.

Will a donation wave a red flag and trigger an audit?
This is a misconception. The facts are, the IRS audits approximately 3% of tax returns and this audit frequency is no higher when someone gives a charitable contribution; in fact the amount of charitable contributions in the United States is roughly $220 billion dollars annually.
