Can You Get a Tax Deduction for Donating Suits?
Yes! When you donate business suits to a 501(c)(3) nonprofit like OnlyFuego, you can deduct the fair market value on your taxes. For quality designer suits, this typically means a deduction of $150-$800+ per suit.
Whether you're downsizing your wardrobe, changing careers, or clearing out a loved one's closet, your donated suits continue working—helping others dress for success while generating ongoing charitable impact.
What's Your Suit Worth?
The IRS allows you to deduct fair market value—what a buyer would reasonably pay:
Tip: Multiple suits donated together can add up significantly. 5 designer suits at $300 each = $1,500 deduction.
