Cryptocurrency

Crypto philanthropy is a new and thrilling fundraising avenue for nonprofit organizations like the Hertz Foundation.

With more than 220 million crypto users worldwide and the value of many cryptocurrencies rising, the crypto community is positioned to make a wide-reaching impact through philanthropy.

Donating crypto is also one of the most tax-efficient ways for individuals to support causes that matter to them.

How to Donate Cryptocurrency to the Hertz Foundation

Donating crypto is safe, easy and fast. Using the widget on this page, making a charitable gift is a quick three-step process:

  1. Select your preferred cryptocurrency, and enter your gift amount.
  2. Type in your email and basic information.
  3. Submit your gift.

Crypto charitable donations are processed quickly and safely with The Giving Block and Gemini Trust Exchange

When you make a donation, you can elect to receive an automatically generated tax receipt that will be sent to the email address you provide. Please note that, if you chose to give anonymously, The Giving Block will provide a receipt. This confirmation of your donation will help you close the loop when calculating your taxes.

Tax Benefits of Cryptocurrency Charitable Donations

Crypto donations are one of the most tax-efficient ways to give to charity. Your crypto donation is tax-deductible to the fullest extent permitted by law if you pay taxes in the U.S. The IRS classifies cryptocurrencies as property, so crypto donations to 501c3 charities, like the Hertz Foundation, receive the same tax treatment as stocks. By making a charitable gift, you may also be eligible to significantly reduce what you would otherwise owe in capital gains taxes.*

*We recommend you visit The Giving Block FAQ or consult with your financial planner to determine your tax benefits.
