It's always a great feeling to know that you're helping someone in need. But as good as our intentions may be, our busy lifestyles often make it difficult to find the time to make a difference. Thankfully, there are numerous charities through which we can donate our money, when we can't donate our time. One of the best ways to benefit your favorite charity these days is through an automobile donation. Car donations can be a great source of much-needed funds for a number of charitable organizations that accept them. And because car donations can count as a tax deduction, you can help the needy and still recoup your investment at tax time. There is no shortage of charitable organizations benefiting from car donations. Well-known charities such as Habitat For Humanity, the United Breast Cancer Foundation, and USO all receive funds from auto donations. There are also dozens of smaller charities who benefit from this type of donation. The donation process is fairly simple and straightforward. You'll have to choose a charity whose cause you'd like to benefit. If you're interested in deducting the donation from your taxes, make sure that the charity is classified as a 501(c)(3) organization. There are quite a few organizations to choose from, so narrow down your choices by considering what charitable missions mean the most to you... this way, you're not just randomly donating, the donation actually reflects what you believe in most. Once you've settled on which lucky organization will receive your car donation, you'll need to contact the organization and go through some simple paperwork. After that, the organization will arrange to have the vehicle picked up over the next few days. These charities are very time efficient in picking up your vehicle, and will often show up for the vehicle in less than 72 hours after your first contact with the organization. You'll get some type of receipt at the time of pickup. In most states, you'll want to make sure that you sign over the title and remove your license plates before the vehicle is carried away. Check with your attorney and local Department of Motor Vehicles for specific requirements in your area. After this, the charity will likely resell the vehicle and use the funds towards their mission. Make sure they send you the documentation showing what the vehicle sold for, so you can use that as proof of your donation on your tax return. Car donations can go a long way toward making the world a better place for others. They're a fairly simple, straightforward way to make a large donation towards a worthy cause. You can have the satisfaction of knowing you benefited a charity you believe in, while also looking forward to a great deduction at tax time.

Kisah Abdul, Bocah yang Rela Merangkak Sejauh 3 Km Demi Sampai ke Sekolah

Jadi, kamu yang sehat dan sempurna apa kabar?
Ada banyak sekali kisah yang datang dari mereka, para difabel yang punya semangat luar biasa dan menginspirasi kita. Meski berada dalam keterbatasan orang-orang ini tak pernah memasrahkan diri pada nasib, tetapi berusaha tetap berdiri dan sama dengan mereka yang punya fisik sempurna.
Kisah kali ini datang dari seorang bocah lelaki asal Sukabumi bernama Muklis Abdul Kholik alias Adul (9). Keterbatasan pada kedua kakinya membuat ia harus merangkak demi sampai ke sekolahnya di SDN 10 Cibadak Sukabumi. Bagaimana perjuangan Adul? Mari kita belajar bersama dari bocah ini, semoga kisahnya menginspirasi!

Diantar ketika duduk di bangku PAUD

Adul sudah terlahir sebagai difabel. Ia tinggal bersama orangtua asuhnya Dadan (50) dan Pipin (45) ini mulanya diantar orangtuanya dengan digendong. Hal tersebut dituturkan oleh Pipin sendiri, sejak PAUD sampai kelas 2 SD ia mengantar Adul ke sekolah dengan menggendongnya. Orangtua Adul takut anak mereka menjadi bulan-bulanan temannya. Namun, setelah naik kelas 3, Adul meminta orangtuanya tidak lagi mengantar melainkan ia berjalan sendiri. Sesekali Pipin mengantar dengan membuntuti Adul dari belakang. Bocah yang sekarang duduk di bangku kelas 3 SD ini diterima oleh teman dan guru-gurunya dengan baik di sekolah.

Perjuangan melewati jalan setapak dan jembatan bambu


Adul menginspirasi bukan sekedar semangatnya yang menggebu untuk sampai ke sekolah meski memiliki keterbatasan saja. Lebih lagi, rumah Adul cukup jauh jaraknya dari sekolahnya. Untuk sampai ke sekolah, ia harus naik turun perbukitan Gunung Walat yang memiliki medan jalan setapak dan curam. Terlebih lagi saat musim hujan, jalanan menjadi sang licin sehingga harus ekstra hati-hati agar tidak membahayakan. Setelah melewati jalan curam, Adul juga harus menyeberangi selokan dengan memanfaatkan jembatan terbuat anyaman bambu. Selanjutnya, Adul menumpang jasa ojek menuju sekolah yang memakan biaya Rp7000 sekali jalan. Keadaan ini dilaluinya setiap hari tanpa mengeluh.

Cita-cita Adul yang ingin menjadi pemadam kebakaran

Kepala SDN X Cibadak, Epi Mulyadi mengungkapkan bahwa alasan sekolah menerima Adul adalah karena ia anak cerdas yang punya semangat luar biasa. Kekurangan fisik tak pernah membuat ia minder, Adul bisa melakukan semua tugas yang diberikan guru padanya. Bahkan, Adul ikut dalam ekstrakurikuler pramuka dan olahraga. Jika pun mau dimasukkan ke SLB, jaraknya lumayan jauh dari sekolah yang sekarang, kondisi ekonomi keluarga Adul juga menjadi pertimbangan tersendiri. “Adul punya hak yang sama dalam menempuh pendidikan seperti anak-anak lainnya, anak-anak seusianya. Kalau memang anak ini mampu kenapa harus kami tolak masuk sekolah kami”. kata Epi seperti dilansir dari Kompas.com.

Mendapat hadiah dan dukungan dari berbagai pihak

Berkat semangat Adul, ada banyak sekali pihak yang memberi apresiasi padanya. Adul bersama orangtuanya diundang ke talkshow Hitam Putih pada Rabu (14/11) kemarin. Dari acara yang dipansu oleh Deddy Corbuzier ini, ia mendapat bantuan tabungan pendidikan sebesar 10 juta rupiah, serta satu buah tablet. Tidak hanya itu, komunitas relawan sosial Sahabat Kristiawan Peduli (SKP) pun membebaskan utang orangtua Adul ke koperasi sebesar Rp 5 juta, membelikan Adul peralatan sekolah dan juga tongkat untuk membantunya ke sekolah, seperti dilansir dari detik.com.

Dari Adul lagi-lagi kita bisa belajar banyak hal. Tak ada yang tak mungkin selama masih punya tekad dan kemauan. Buktinya, Adul yang masih berumur 9 tahun, punya fisik yang tak sempurna saja masih semangat ke sekolah meski dengan cara merangkak. Masa iya, kita yang tercipta dengan fisik sempurna masih suka mengeluh dan tidak bersyukur?
