Volunteer Driver Tax Appreciation Act of 2025

Raises the tax deduction for certain charitable driving. Most charitable mileage stays at 14 cents per mile. But when a taxpayer uses their vehicle to transport people (other than themselves) or property for specified charitable organizations, the Treasury will set a special charitable mileage rate that cannot be lower than the standard business mileage rate.

This change applies starting with tax years that begin after December 31, 2024. It could increase deductions for volunteer drivers and help charities that rely on transportation services.
