Through our partnership with Tiltify and The Giving Block, supporters can now give using popular cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin (BTC), Ethereum (ETH), and many others. This new option helps meet donors where they are and opens the door for more people to help change kids’ health to change the future.
Why this matters
More ways to give: Cryptocurrency donations offer supporters another way to champion their local children’s hospital.
Trusted and secure: The Giving Block is a leading platform that safely processes crypto donations for nonprofits.
Potential tax benefits: In the U.S., donating appreciated crypto can reduce capital gains taxes while allowing a charitable deduction. (Consult your tax advisor for details.)
How it works
On any Extra Life fundraiser hosted on Tiltify, click “Donate.”
Select your donation amount and proceed to the Payment Details page.
Under Payment Type, choose “Crypto.”
Complete your transaction using the secure Giving Block form that appears.
You’ll receive a confirmation email and, if you provide your email address, a tax receipt from The Giving Block.
Your donation will be reflected in the fundraiser’s total just like any other gift.
For fundraisers
Let your community know they can now give crypto! Add a note to your page or share on social media:
“We now accept crypto donations through Extra Life — another way to help kids treated at local children’s hospitals.”
Your totals will automatically update when someone gives through The Giving Block, no extra setup needed.
If you have questions, our team is happy to help.
