    Donate Cryptocurrency

    Donate Cryptocurrency

    Donate your Bitcoin and other digital currencies to the Alzheimer’s Association. A cryptocurrency donation supports our efforts to advance critical research and provide essential care and support to those facing Alzheimer’s.

    Why give crypto to a charity like the Alzheimer’s Association? 

    Donating your cryptocurrency is a way to support the fight to end Alzheimer’s disease while receiving potential tax benefits.

    Cryptocurrency is classified by the IRS as property for tax purposes, which means it is typically the most tax-efficient way to support the causes you care about. When you give cryptocurrency, you receive a tax deduction for the fair market value of the cryptocurrency, and you avoid the capital gains tax you would have incurred if you had sold the cryptocurrency and then made a donation. This means you can donate more while deducting more on your tax return. If you provide your email address, you will receive a tax receipt after making your donation.

    How do you make a cryptocurrency donation?

    Secure crypto donations to the Alzheimer’s Association can be made through an online form powered by The Giving Block. Fees may vary. You can give Bitcoin, Bitcoin Cash, Dogecoin, Ethereum and many other digital currencies.
