Crypto & stablecoin giving
Give crypto or stablecoin
Support free, plain-language cancer education with digital currency. It can be a fast, low-fee, and tax-smart way to give — and it keeps the library free for the patients, caregivers, and families who rely on it.
Donate USDC stablecoin in seconds
USDC is a stablecoin pegged 1:1 to the U.S. dollar, so your gift’s value doesn’t swing between when you send it and when we receive it. Give it right here through our secure checkout — no separate wallet transfer to manage.
Choose another amount or frequencyAt checkout, choose the crypto / stablecoin option to pay in USDC (available on major networks). Card, Apple Pay, and Google Pay are there too if you change your mind.
Why give with crypto
Potentially tax-smart
In the U.S., the IRS treats cryptocurrency as property. Donating crypto you've held more than a year directly to a qualified charity may let you avoid capital-gains tax on the appreciation and deduct the full fair-market value — often more of your gift reaches the cause than if you sold first and donated cash. (See the honest note below on our tax status.)
Fast and low-fee
Stablecoin gifts settle in minutes, and on-chain fees are typically far lower than card-processing fees — so more of your donation funds the work instead of the middle.
Global and borderless
Supporters anywhere in the world can give without currency conversion or international card friction — fitting for a library meant to reach people everywhere.
Secure and transparent
Stablecoin gifts run through Stripe's secure checkout, the same processor as our card and wallet donations. On-chain gifts carry their own public, verifiable record.
Giving Bitcoin, Ethereum, or a larger crypto gift?
For donations of Bitcoin, Ether, or other cryptocurrencies — especially larger gifts of appreciated crypto where the tax advantages matter most — please reach out and we’ll arrange a secure transfer and send you a proper acknowledgement for your records. We don’t post a public wallet address here, because confirming the destination directly with you is safer for everyone.

National Cancer Information Foundation has applied for recognition as a tax-exempt organization under Section 501(c)(3); IRS determination is still pending. Until that determination is granted, we can’t promise your gift is tax-deductible, and nothing here is tax advice. Crypto tax rules are complex and depend on your own situation — please talk with a qualified tax professional about your specific circumstances before giving.
