Mission Statement
First Book is an award-winning nonprofit social enterprise that is dedicated to removing barriers to equitable education for children living in low-income communities.
Why Donate Bitcoin to First Book?
Over half of America’s low-income children are growing up in homes without books.
That’s millions. Millions of children live in a book desert – no books to spark imagination. No books to strengthen their critical thinking skills. No books to connect with the outside world.
First Book changes all of that.
In 30 years, First Book has distributed over 225 million new books and educational resources worth $2 billion to programs and schools serving children from low-income communities in more than 30 countries.
We are focused on removing barriers so kids in need can learn and thrive.
Together, we can give new high-quality books and resources for kids who need them most, to help fuel a love of reading and learning.
Save on your Taxes by Donating Crypto
Why Donate Crypto Directly? Taxes!
There’s a reason high net worth individuals tend to donate property instead of cash. Donating cryptocurrency directly to a 501c3 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. The difference? Sometimes more than 30%.
If you provide an email, you will automatically receive a tax receipt after donating.
