We are now accepting gifts of cryptocurrency through The Giving Block. Because a donation of cryptocurrency is a non-taxable event, donors don’t owe capital gains tax on the appreciated crypto that is donated. Typically, donors can deduct the fair market value of the donation on their taxes. To learn more about how donating crypto can lower your taxes, visit thegivingblock.com/faq.
Donors aged 70 1/2 and older with traditional IRAs are eligible to benefit from an IRA gift. This kind of gift is usually 100% tax-free and allows you to support Woodwell’s climate science research without increasing your taxable income. For donors age 72 and older, an IRA gift can also count toward your Required Minimum Distribution (RMD), without the taxes associated with regular IRA withdrawals. Please consult your financial advisor or contact Beth Bagley with any questions.
