Donate Cryptocurrency

Donate Cryptocurrency

Making a cryptocurrency donation is a simple and tax-efficient way to help bring solar solutions to those living in energy poverty. Your gift supports innovative solar projects that power a more equitable future for all.

What Makes SELF Different

SELF goes beyond simple solar lighting to implement high-impact solar infrastructure. This could mean installing solar-powered drip irrigation systems to improve food security, or electrifying health clinics with life-saving medical equipment and vaccine refrigeration.

Whatever the project, we focus on strategic investments that make a lasting impact. That means that when you give crypto, you can know that you’re changing lives tomorrow and for generations to come.

Why Donate Crypto

Tax Efficiency

The IRS considers your cryptocurrency donation a non-taxable event, meaning you will not owe capital gains tax on the appreciated amount and can deduct it on your taxes. This is why cryptocurrency donations are one of the most tax-efficient ways to help SELF fight energy poverty and why financial advisors recommend donating your most highly appreciated assets first.

Anonymity

We know how important anonymity can be within the cryptocurrency community, so you can choose to make your secure donations entirely anonymous when going through the Giving Block. You may choose to include contact information if you would like to receive email updates about the impact of your gift, but this is entirely up to you.

Simplicity

By donating crypto through the Giving Block, you will automatically be provided with a tax receipt via email.
