The storm, which now marks the first known Category 4 storm to hit Florida’s Big Bend region since records began in 1851, weakened to a tropical storm early Friday morning as it barreled through Georgia, causing life-threatening flooding in Atlanta and the Carolinas.

Tax Benefit Calculator for Crypto & Stock Donations
Why donate crypto or stock?
When you donate appreciated crypto or stock in the U.S., you typically avoid paying state and federal capital gains tax, enabling the charity to receive the full amount (rather than an after-tax remainder). The difference can often exceed 30%—a huge difference for you and the charity you support.
Use this calculator to estimate the tax benefits of crypto and stock donations you make through The Giving Block. Make a difference for a cause you care about, while saving on your taxes.
Estimate Your Tax Deduction
Donations of non-cash assets like cryptocurrency and stock can be more tax-efficient than donating cash. Plus, the charity receives more.

Why Donate DAF?
Many donors give crypto to reduce their tax bills and increase their gift size by up to 30%. When US donors give appreciated property (like Donor Advised Funds) to qualifying charities, they don't owe taxes on the donated DAF, and neither does the charity! That's why when you give DAF to disaster relief, it can mean larger donations, and smaller tax bills.

- - United States And International Disaster Relief: We provide immediate assistance and long-term support to communities affected by natural disasters, such as earthquakes, floods, hurricanes, and wildfires. We help people evacuate, find shelter, access food and water, and rebuild their lives.
