Cryptocurrency Donations

Donate your cryptocurrency to save, protect, and care for wildlife.

Your support fuels critical conservation worldwide, cares for thousands of animals and plants at the San Diego Zoo and San Diego Zoo Safari Park, and offers hope to the world’s most extraordinary wildlife relying on us to survive—and thrive—each and every day.

Tax Benefits & Information

Donating cryptocurrency is a non-taxable event. Donors do not owe capital gains tax on the appreciated cryptocurrency that is donated and can typically deduct the fair market value of the donation on their taxes. This often makes Bitcoin, Ethereum, and other cryptocurrency donations one of the most tax-efficient ways to support wildlife.

This is not legal advice. Consult with your tax professional.
