Healthy and Hopeful Futures

Your gift of cryptocurrency helps Children’s Hospital Colorado see more, treat more and heal more children than any hospital in our seven-state region. Healthier futures for kids are fueled by generous donors like you.

Why donate crypto directly to Children’s Hospital Colorado Foundation?

Cryptocurrency is a digital asset that functions like currency. The IRS treats a cryptocurrency donation similar to property. When you donate cryptocurrency directly to a nonprofit, you may be eligible to deduct up to the fair market value of the crypto and avoid capital gains you would have incurred if you sold the crypto and then made a cash donation. Consult your tax advisor for more information.*

How can I donate cryptocurrency?

It’s simple. Use the widget to the right to donate your cryptocurrency. You will receive a unique wallet address, which can be used each time you donate. When you submit your donation, our partner liquidates the crypto as soon as possible and makes a grant to us in cash.

The tax donation receipt you will be issued will reflect the amount that we receive after the liquidation of the cryptocurrency. You may donate crypto anonymously, but in order to receive a receipt for your donation, you must enter your email address in the widget.
