About this organization
Citywide Car Club Wyoming appears in the IRS Exempt Organizations Master File under section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code, meaning contributions are deductible for federal income tax purposes when made by an itemizing donor. Public 990 filings are the primary source for current operational information, and we link to them directly below so you can review without leaving the verification trail.
Vehicle donation programs operating in Wyoming typically follow one of two models. Auction-and-fund charities accept vehicles in any condition, sell them through partner auctions, and use the proceeds to fund the broader mission. Refurbish-and-place charities accept working vehicles, perform inspections and repairs, and place the car directly with a vetted recipient. Confirm which model Citywide Car Club Wyoming operates before donating — it changes both your IRS Form 1098-C treatment and the recipient outcome.
If you want to donate a vehicle
Begin by contacting Citywide Car Club Wyoming directly through the contact information listed in their most recent Form 990 or on their official website. A reputable program will confirm in writing that they accept vehicles, describe the pickup logistics, and outline the title transfer process for Wyoming.
- Confirm the vehicle types accepted — running cars, non-running cars, trucks, RVs, boats, motorcycles all have different processes.
- Ask whether the charity processes vehicles in-house or through a third-party "vehicle donation processor."
- Request a written acknowledgment with the charity's EIN and 501(c)(3) status confirmation.
- Get clear instructions on the title transfer specific to Wyoming — release of liability requirements vary state to state.
- Ask for the IRS Form 1098-C delivery timeline (legally must be within 30 days of disposition).
Refer to our step-by-step donor walkthrough and the title transfer checklist for the documentation you should have ready before pickup.
If you are applying to receive a vehicle
Not every 501(c)(3) listed in the IRS database operates a public application program; some programs serve members only, some have wait lists closed for the year, some primarily fund services rather than placing vehicles. Contact Citywide Car Club Wyoming directly to confirm whether they currently accept applications from the public, what the eligibility criteria are, and how long the typical timeline runs.
Most programs serving low-income recipients require proof of income at or below 200% of the federal poverty level, verifiable employment or school enrollment, a valid driver's license, the ability to insure the vehicle, and a reasonably clean driving record. Veteran-focused programs additionally require a DD-214. See our document checklist before you submit anything.
