Support Nonprofits That Advocate For Military, Veterans & First Responders
First responders, veterans and active duty service members put themselves on the front lines to protect the rest of us. It’s essential that they have the resources to transition to civilian life, cope with tragedy, and receive assistance with food, housing and health services. With sufficient funding, nonprofits working with this population are able to provide temporary housing and mental health services, coordinate job training programs, distribute food and more. They also help the children and families of first responders who lost their lives or have been injured in the line of duty by providing financial assistance.
Each year, people donate more than $2.5 billion to support thousands of American charities with military-related missions, but with 17.4 million Americans identifying as veterans, there are always additional ways to help. Consider making a donation in support of nonprofits that advocate for veterans, active duty service members and first responders.

Save on Your Taxes by Donating Crypto
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.
