A 4723 New York Assembly · 2025 Regular Session

Allows for the donation of personal property of the state to certain not-for-profit organizations

This bill allows New York state agencies to donate surplus personal property (excluding vehicles) to qualified 501(c)(3) nonprofit organizations that are current on annual filings. State agencies may donate property with a fair market value below a threshold set by the commissioner, provided the nonprofit meets filing requirements. Agencies must document all donations for audit and cannot donate property purchased from special funds without reimbursing that fund. The policy aims to redirect unused state assets to eligible nonprofits instead of selling or discarding them, reducing waste while ensuring proper oversight.
