S 8748 New York Senate · 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 unused state-owned personal property (excluding vehicles) to eligible 501(c)(3) nonprofits that are current with their annual filings. It permits donations when the property's fair market value is below a threshold set by the commissioner, in addition to existing disposal options like sales or reuse. Agencies must maintain records of all donations for audit and cannot donate property purchased with special funds without reimbursing that fund. The law applies directly to state agencies managing surplus property and qualifying nonprofits seeking donated resources.
