7 Ways Your Donations Can Empower Women and Girls

by

Women’s History Month is celebrated worldwide to honor women’s historic achievements and remind us that while gender equality has advanced, there is still plenty of work ahead. Nonprofit organizations around the globe continue to champion women’s causes—from education and healthcare to economic empowerment and beyond. Your donation helps these organizations support today’s trailblazers who will become tomorrow’s history-makers.​ 

At The Giving Block, we make it simple to support women and girls’ charitable organizations with crypto, stock, and card donations. Every contribution you make helps fund vital programs that ensure equal access to education, career opportunities, healthcare, and other essential services.

Below, we’ve outlined seven key areas where your donation can make a real difference:

Donating Digital Assets Supports Women and Girls in These 7 Ways

1. Access to Quality Education

Across the globe, many girls face barriers to obtaining a safe, quality education—from dangerous commutes to cultural or economic hurdles. Supporting education is a cornerstone for long-term empowerment, opening doors for women to improve their lives and communities.

2. Equal Career Opportunities

Despite progress, women remain underrepresented in many fields, especially technology. Donations help fund programs that teach coding, nurture entrepreneurial ventures, and provide leadership training, thereby bridging the gender gap in tech and other industries. This year, we’re especially proud to highlight the Future Fund: NextGen Women in Web3 initiative by 1,000 Dreams Fund. This program provides mentorship, microgrants, and direct career opportunities in emerging fields like Web3, AI, blockchain, and cryptocurrency—empowering women to break new ground in tech.

3. Women’s Rights

From advocating for reproductive rights to fighting against child marriage and gender discrimination, numerous nonprofits are on the front lines protecting women’s rights. Your support helps these organizations provide critical resources and advocate for policies that advance equality.

4. Alleviating Violence Against Women

Violence against women, including sexual abuse and trafficking, remains a pressing concern across the world. Donations can help provide safe havens, counseling, legal aid, and reintegration programs for women escaping abusive situations, empowering them to rebuild their lives.

5. Health Support Services

Women and girls face unique health challenges—from menstrual equity and abortion rights to breast cancer risk. Your donation aids nonprofits in expanding access to healthcare services and raising awareness about these critical issues

6. Economic Empowerment

Empowering women economically not only benefits individuals but also strengthens entire communities. Contributions help fund initiatives that provide microgrants, mentorship, and financial literacy programs—giving women the resources they need to achieve financial independence.

7. Mentorship and Advocacy

The lack of female role models in leadership can hinder progress in many sectors. Donations support mentorship programs that connect young women with experienced professionals, creating networks that champion female leadership and amplify women’s voices.

The organizations that help girls and women navigate these issues rely on the generosity of supporters who are willing to give what they can to support empowerment efforts. Click here to donate to organizations supporting Women & Girls.

Are Crypto and Other Asset Donations to Women’s Organizations Tax Deductible?

Many people may be wondering if their crypto, stock, or card donations to women’s organizations are tax deductible. It turns out donating non-cash assets is deductible and can save you money on your tax return. 

For tax purposes, cryptocurrency in particular is regarded as property by the IRS and the tax deduction you receive is for the fair market value of your crypto at the time that you donate it. This means not only is donating crypto a highly tax-efficient way to support women’s organizations, but you could also reduce your capital gains bill as a result.
