There’s a reason high-net-worth individuals tend to donate property instead of cash. Donating cryptocurrency directly to a 501c(3) nonprofit is more tax efficient and can save you money. The IRS classifies cryptocurrency as property for tax purposes, which means it is typically the most tax-efficient way to support your favorite cause. When donating crypto, you receive a tax deduction for the fair market value of the crypto, and you avoid the capital gains tax you would have incurred if you had sold the crypto and then made a donation. That means you’re able to donate more, as well as deduct more on your tax return.
This information is current as of 2021; please consult a tax expert for current and definitive details.
The 501(c)3 nonprofit Tax ID for the Clean Coalition is 14-1901877.

Transitioning to renewable energy is critical to fighting climate change, and maximizing local renewable sources makes communities resilient. While our Santa Barbara region is incredibly special, the grid is alarmingly vulnerable to natural disasters. Our family foundation has supported the Clean Coalition for the past decade. The organization's leadership, vision, and initiative has demonstrated that clean energy innovations can benefit our local region and also serve as a model for communities across the country.
