With this in mind, we’re thrilled to announce that UNRWA USA now accepts cryptocurrency donations as a cutting-edge way to help fund our work for Palestine refugees!

What is cryptocurrency (aka crypto)? Crypto is the fastest growing donation method for Millennial and Gen-Z donors. At its core, cryptocurrency is typically decentralized digital money designed to be securely used over the Internet using cryptography.

How and why should I donate my crypto to UNRWA USA?

  • Donating cryptocurrency to UNRWA USA is fast, easy, and secure! Go here to donate crypto to UNRWA USA now and put them to work in the service of Palestine refugees.

  • Your cryptocurrency donation is tax-deductible (to the fullest extent permitted by law) and The Giving Block you instantly will receive an automatic tax receipt.

  • In the United States, the IRS classifies cryptocurrencies as property. So when you donate your crypto directly, you give more, and pay less taxes (rather than converting to cash, then donating).

  • Your tax deduction will be equal to the fair market value of the donated Bitcoin (as determined by a qualified appraisal).

Always, consult your tax advisor. If you have any questions or are interested in donating other types of gifts to UNRWA USA, you can get in touch with our Development team by emailing zaina@unrwausa.org.
