Donating Cryptocurrency

Donating Cryptocurrency Is:

  • A non-taxable event, meaning you do not owe capital gains tax on the appreciated amount and can deduct it on your taxes. This makes Bitcoin and other cryptocurrency donations one of the most tax efficient ways to support your favorite cause.

Why Donate Crypto?

The Mandala School wants to build connective and sustainable partnerships with donors and participate in the new social philanthropy that is the next frontier. TMS wants to continue to grow the core pillars of its mission: education, whole student, enrichment, character building, and community.

Excitingly, The Mandala School plans to purchase a farm property so that we can expand our curriculum to include hands-on environmentalism and stewardship. It is an essential element of our mission to connect our students, families, and the community with how food is grown, cultivated, harvested and how the land is cared for.

Expanding The Mandala School’s donor campaign strategy to include cryptocurrency will introduce us and our mission to an entire new group of philanthropists who are including cryptocurrency in their donation portfolio strategy and on the cutting edge of giving modalities.

Our donor campaign has traditionally been to tap into our school’s database and local and regional communities and then expand outward. However, with the occurrence of the COVID-19 Pandemic, many businesses — including TMS — have had to take a critical look at their strategies to raise money.

Including cryptocurrency in our donor campaign strategy, will exponentially raise our visibility in this exciting arena.
