64% of 10-year-olds globally are unable to read and understand a simple story. Yet readers build healthier, happier lives for themselves and those around them.

Why Cryptocurrency?
The Power of Digital Currency
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 US. By making a charitable gift, you may also be eligible to significantly reduce what you would otherwise owe in capital gains taxes.
Donating cryptocurrency you have owned for more than one year and that has increased in value may provide better tax benefits than selling the asset and giving cash. Your charitable income tax deduction is equal to the fair market value of the investment. You avoid paying the capital gains tax on any increase in value over the original cost of the crypto.
