World Vision is a different kind of investment. Our focus is on helping the most vulnerable children overcome poverty and experience fullness of life. We help children of all backgrounds, even in the most dangerous places, inspired by our Christian faith.<\/p>\n

If you were fortunate enough to stack away lots of SATS in the last bull run, consider making an even greater investment by donating cryptocurrency to World Vision. Here’s why:[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_tta_accordion c_icon=”chevron” active_section=”-1″ collapsible_all=”true”][vc_tta_section title=”We’re effective” tab_id=”1639119744097-5df63e2d-418c”][vc_column_text]Every 60 seconds, a family gets water, a hungry child is fed, and a family receives the tools to overcome poverty.<\/strong><\/p>\n

In just five years, together we impacted the lives of over 200 million vulnerable children by tackling the root causes of poverty.<\/p>\n

World Vision is reaching one new person with clean water every 10 seconds and reaches three more schools every day.<\/p>\n

Over the last 10 years, 89% of the severely malnourished children we treated made a full recovery.<\/p>\n

Because of our community-focused solutions, for every child you help, four more children benefit, too.<\/p>\n

If you own Bitcoin or another digital currency, chances are it is worth a lot more than what you paid for it. But did you know that you can use a cryptocurrency gift to World Vision to support vulnerable children and save on taxes?<\/p>\n

If you donate appreciated cryptocurrency that has been held longer than one year, you do not owe capital gains tax on the appreciated amount and can deduct it from your taxes. This makes donations of Bitcoin, Ether, and other cryptocurrency one of the most tax-efficient ways to support a favorite cause like World Vision.<\/p>\n

     <\/p>\n

    Will I have to pay capital gains tax when I donate cryptocurrency?<\/strong><\/p>\n

    The IRS classifies cryptocurrencies as property, so crypto donations to 501(c)(3) charities receive the same tax treatment as stocks. Donating cryptocurrency is a non-taxable event, meaning you do not owe capital gains tax on the appreciated amount and can deduct it from your taxes. Please contact your tax or financial advisor for more information.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][\/vc_section]<\/p>\n<\/div><\/body><\/html>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
