I can't afford my timeshare anymore, is there a way I can turn it into a donation to charity?

1 Answer

Answer :

It is possible to donate your timeshare to charity, but it can be very difficult as they have very little monetary value. There are organizations who can help you such as Donate For A Cause. You will only be able to claim a tax deduction if the charity makes a profit from it. Another option would be to simply give it back or sell it on an auction site with no reserve price.
