Every December, the crypto community comes together for one day that celebrates what this technology was built for: creating impact.
That day is Crypto Giving Tuesday, the biggest day in Crypto Philanthropy.
This year, it arrives in the middle of our Crypto for Impact campaign, which is already bringing together thousands of donors, nonprofits, and projects to help raise $300 million in crypto donations for charities around the world.
As crypto adoption continues to expand, so does the generosity of this community. Together, we’re proving that digital assets can be one of the most powerful tools for good in modern history.
Crypto for Impact: Raising $300 Million for Global Good
The Crypto for Impact campaign is our collective mission to raise $300 million in crypto donations for nonprofits worldwide by the end of 2025.
Through this campaign, we’re celebrating the people who use crypto to create positive change and calling on everyone in the ecosystem to do their part.
From St. Jude and Save the Children to Make-A-Wish and Direct Relief, nonprofits around the world are using crypto to reach new donors and build stronger, more transparent funding models.
Your donations are helping them change lives every day.
Why Crypto Giving Tuesday Matters
Crypto Giving Tuesday marks the start of the most generous season of the year for the crypto community. In 2024, nearly one-third of all annual crypto donations happened in December.
This day is a reminder of what makes our community different. Crypto donors are not waiting for permission from traditional finance to make a difference. They are taking action right now, using innovation to drive generosity.
Whether you are donating Bitcoin, Ethereum, or stablecoins, every transaction tells a story of impact.
Crypto donations can also be one of the most tax-efficient ways to give. By donating appreciated crypto directly to a nonprofit, donors can avoid capital gains tax and potentially claim a charitable deduction. Learn more in our guide to Crypto Taxes and Crypto Donations.
Recognizing the Most Impactful Leaders in Crypto Philanthropy
As part of the Crypto for Impact campaign, we are also celebrating the 2025 Most Impactful Awards. These honors recognize the donors, nonprofits, builders, and advocates who are setting the standard for what crypto can achieve.
From the journalists sharing stories of crypto for good to the integration partners making giving easier than ever, this recognition shines a light on the people who prove every day that crypto’s greatest strength is its community.
