There’s never been a better time to donate Bitcoin to Sudanese heroes
Since civil war careened across Sudan in April 2023, the Sudanese people have been plunged into the largest and most dangerous humanitarian crisis on the planet. And the world has barely noticed.
Nearly 25 million Sudanese —that’s half the country— are now in need of urgent humanitarian assistance. More than 10 million Sudanese have been internally-displaced or have had to flee the country. 730,000 Sudanese children are suffering from severe acute malnutrition and 20 million can no longer attend school.
Behind these numbers are individual stories of unimaginable suffering and horror. 27-year-old Halima fled West Darfur last year after Rapid Support Forces (RSF)-aligned militia executed her husband. “He was everything,” Halima said. “We knew each other since we were children. The men with guns took everything from me. Now we are here. Now we are hungry. When does this end?”
Halima is just one of millions of Sudanese who cannot grieve because she must survive. Famine is already breaking out in small pockets of Sudan as farming and healthcare collapses and extreme violence impedes aid access.
Wait, what’s happening in Sudan?
One of the worst armed conflicts and the largest humanitarian catastrophe in the world.

Needs now exponentially eclipse available resources. Only 4% of the $2.7 billion the world needs to meet baseline humanitarian needs has been provided. Our organization alone needs to almost double our annual budget to aid our Sudanese healthcare and education partners in this dark hour. That’s the bad news.
The good news is that you can help. Sudan has rarely been on the radar of foundations, big donors…pretty much everyone. As a forward-thinking nonprofit, we’ve been working for years to overcome this challenge by investing in cutting edge philanthropy and crowdfunding tools such as cryptocurrency giving. And with Bitcoin at all-time highs, you can use your gains to save lives in Sudan in a tax-efficient way.

Crypto donations are one of the most tax-efficient ways to give if you pay taxes in the United States. Donating cryptocurrency you have owned for more than one year and that has increased in value may provide better tax benefits than selling the token and giving cash. Your charitable income tax deduction is equal to the fair market value of the investment. You avoid paying the capital gains tax on any increase in value over the original cost of the crypto.
If one of the reasons you are donating is for tax benefits, we strongly encourage you to consult with your financial advisor before giving.
