Donate Bitcoin and other Cryptocurrencies

 AfriKids believes that all children everywhere deserve to be safe, educated and healthy. Your Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies could make this a reality for children in northern Ghana.

Here, poverty is driving children into work too young and forcing families to neglect their health and safety. By giving today, your cryptocurrency donation can ensure even the most vulnerable children can be safe from abuse, access life-changing healthcare and be learning in school.

Is my cryptocurrency donation tax deductible? 

Yes, your cryptocurrency donation is tax deductible!* Donating Bitcoin and other cryptocurrency is one of the most tax-efficient ways to support charity. The IRS classifies cryptocurrency donations as property, meaning they are not subject to capital gains tax and are tax-deductible. To learn more about how donating cryptocurrency to a charity can lower your taxes, check out The Giving Block's tips or talk to a tax professional.

*Please consult your tax advisor. You can donate anonymously but you will not receive a tax receipt unless you provide at least your email address.

Important information

Please only send the exact cryptocurrency listed on the blockchain mentioned on the widget. Do not send any other cryptocurrencies (including layer 2, wrapped tokens, NFTs or other ERC-20 tokens not listed) as these are unsupported and may result in loss of donation. For more info, click here.
