dem1138 Posted October 1, 2006 Share Posted October 1, 2006 A friend has a collection of books maybe valued at $150 that he'd like to donate to a charity and use it as a tax write off. Any suggestions? I know that someone on here has an organization that looks for comic books... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the books are in NYC,almost any school with an ESL class will be happy to take them.You should be able to get a reciept for full cover/or overstreet value,whichever is higher.

JJBEE2001 Posted October 2, 2006 Share Posted October 2, 2006 A couple years ago, I had a stack of low-value books that were taking up space more than anything. I donated them to the nearest children's hospital. A couple weeks later, I got a note from a lady who works there and she said the kids absolutely love comics. She thanked me and invited me to send more if I ever wanted to. I don't remember if they provided some kind of "receipt" or not, but even if they didn't, just knowing that they're being read and enjoyed instead of sitting in a box or on a shelf in my house was better than any minor tax write-off.

toriw Posted December 21, 2017 Share Posted December 21, 2017 Finding a place to donate your comic books can be difficult. I would recommend donating to http://www.collectibleswithcauses.org. They accept not only comic books but other things as well like star wars collectibles, and vintage nintendo donations. Collectibleswithcauses.org is a funding project created by Giving Center, Giving Center is an IRS verified 501(c)3 nonprofit organization. The donation process is really simple. All you do is complete the online donation form on their web site, then one of their representatives will get back to you to guide you through the rest of the donation process. If you’d like more information visit either http://www.collectibleswithcauses.org or http://www.givingcenter.org Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lucky Baru Posted December 22, 2017 Share Posted December 22, 2017 You could contact your local women's shelter or local organization that helps with foster children and see if they would like them. Comics are a great escape for children in both those situations. 1950's war comics 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
