Why Donate Crypto?
Donating cryptocurrency is a non-taxable event. Donors do not owe capital gains tax on the appreciated crypto that is donated and can typically deduct the fair market value of the donation on their taxes. This often makes Bitcoin, Ethereum and other cryptocurrency donations are one of the most tax efficient ways to support your favorite cause.
You can find all our accepted cryptocurrencies in our FAQ below. Please do not send unsupported cryptocurrencies as they will be lost.
All cryptocurrency donations are final and no refunds are offered. No goods, services, or airdrops will be offered in exchange for cryptocurrency donations.
