The climate-friendly solution for crypto philanthropy
As pioneers in crypto fundraising, our partners at The Giving Block (TGB) are offsetting the carbon footprint for all crypto donations made via their platform.
- In partnership with Climate Vault, TGB assesses the annual carbon footprint of crypto donation transactions made through their platform.
- TGB doubles the recommended donation needed to neutralize the carbon emissions in order to ensure they maximize their positive environmental impact.
- Climate Vault then reduces carbon in regulated industries by acquiring their emission allowances and taking them out of circulation.

When you donate crypto to a registered nonprofit, you do not recognize capital gains from the donation and can deduct it on your taxes. In other words, donating your crypto can often reduce your tax burden.

Crypto philanthropy is a new fundraising avenue for nonprofit organizations. With more than 220 million crypto users worldwide holding $3 trillion in assets, the crypto community is in a position to make a wide-reaching impact through philanthropy. One Earth’s mission is to galvanize philanthro-activists to rapidly scale Climate Philanthropy. We fund cutting-edge science and technology research, and we have assembled a unique "Project Marketplace" containing over 100 vetted climate solution projects around the world making a big impact in renewable energy, nature conservation, and regenerative agriculture. We know how critical it is that we expand our impact, and we’re thrilled to do it through our ability to accept not just Bitcoin but over 80 different types of crypto. Donations made here will support the entire mission of One Earth and will not be designated to a specific program or location. Crypto Philanthropy is a burgeoning industry with endless impact potential, and we are proud to be at the forefront of it in order to drive dollars to critically underfunded climate solutions. Join us in putting your charitable dollars to work solving the climate crisis!

Yes! Crypto donations are one of the most tax-efficient ways to give to charity. When you donate crypto to a nonprofit, you receive a tax deduction for the value of the crypto and avoid the capital gains tax you would have paid if you sold the crypto before donating. This means donating crypto can translate into a larger donation and a higher tax deduction. As with any tax-related questions, be sure to consult with a qualified, professional tax advisor. Get more information about lowering your crypto taxes.

When you donate appreciated crypto or stock in the US, you typically avoid paying state and federal capital gains tax, enabling One Earth to receive the full amount (rather than an after-tax remainder). The difference can often exceed 30%—a huge difference for you and the causes that you support.

Yes! Instead of selling your Bitcoin and donating the after-tax proceeds, you can donate your Bitcoin and other cryptos directly to One Earth, which means your tax deduction will be the same as the market value of the donation.
