Cryptocurrency Donations

Got Crypto? The Y is now accepting a variety of cryptocurrency donations.

The YMCA of Rock River Valley turns no one away because of their inability to pay. With a focus on building spirit, mind, and body for all, the Y offers fitness opportunities as well as Safety Around Water (swim lessons), and wellness classes for those who are seeking fitness. In addition, the Y is the largest child care provider in the area, making nurturing, developmentally appropriate care available to those who might not be able to pay otherwise. For older adults, the Y is a place to banish isolation and find friendship, fulfillment, and belonging. In the summer and on days off school, Camp Winnebago offers day camp to help all kids gain confidence and acceptance along with fun in the outdoors, away from screens.
 

Why donate cryptocurrency?


If you're a donor in the U.S., the IRS treats cryptocurrency donations like stocks, meaning you do not have to pay capital gains tax on your appreciated cryptocurrency and can write it off on your taxes. This is also the case in many other countries around the world, but please check with a tax professional for guidance. 

We accept the following cryptocurrencies:


Bitcoin (BTC), Ethereum (ETH), Amp (AMP), Aave (AAVE), Alchemix (ALCX), Ankr Network (ANKR), Balancer (BAL), Bancor Network Token (BNT), BarnBridge (BOND), Basic Attention Token (BAT), Bitcoin Cash (BCH), ChainLink (LINK), Compound (COMP), Curve (CRV), Dai (DAI), Decentraland (MANA), Dogecoin (DOGE), Enjin Coin (ENJ), Fantom (FTM), Filecoin (FIL), Gemini Dollar (GUSD), Injective Protocol (INJ), Kyber Network (KNC), Litecoin (LTC), Livepeer (LPT), Loopring (LRC), Maker (MKR), Mirror Protocol (MIR), Orchid (OXT), PAX Gold (PAXG), Polygon (MATIC), Ren (REN), Skale (SKL), Somnium Space (CUBE), Storj (STORJ), SushiSwap (SUSHI), Synthetix (SNX), Tezos (XTZ), The Graph (GRT), The Sandbox (SAND), UMA (UMA), Uniswap (UNI), Yearn.Finance (YFI), Zcash (ZEC), 0x (ZRX), 1inch (1INCH).
