Boy Scouts of America Del-Mar-Va Council Mission Statement 

The mission of the Boy Scouts of America is to prepare young people to make ethical and moral decisions over their lifetimes by instilling in them values based on the Scout Oath and Law.

Why donate cryptocurrency, stocks, or Donor Advised Funds to the Boy Scouts of America Del-Mar-Va Council? 

 

By Contributing to Scouting you will have a profound impact on the future of America. More youth will experience the program that will instill values and character in their moral fiber. Your gift will truly have a direct impact on our world. Scouts like this young man get to participate in a program that improves the social determinants of health by getting them outdoors and promoting physical and mental health. 

Save on your taxes by donating cryptocurrency, stocks, or Donor Advised Funds

Donating cryptocurrency, stocks or Donor Advised Funds directly to a 501(c)3 nonprofit is more tax efficient and can save you money! The IRS classifies cryptocurrency and stocks as property for tax purposes which means it is typically THE MOST tax efficient way to support Scouting. When donating cryptocurrency and/or stock you receive a tax deduction for the full fair market value of the crypto and/or stock and you avoid the capital gains tax you would have incurred if you had sold it and then made a donation. That means you are able to donate more, as well as deduct more on your tax return!  

Through our cryptocurrency and stock donation partnership with The Giving Block we are able to automatically accept over 100 different cryptocurrencies and can make individual arrangements to accept almost ANY crypto, and all stocks. Just send an email  if you need more details. 

What is an NFT (Non-Fungible Token) and does Del-Mar-Va Council accept NFT donations? 

NFT stands for Non-Fungible Token. NFT is a smart contract typically built on the Ethereum blockchain, a decentralized ledger where public transactions are stored. An NFT is like a digital certificate of authenticity that serves as proof of ownership. Supporters can donate the proceeds from the sale of an NFT to Del-Mar-Va Council through our cryptocurrency donation page. If you are an artist or other NFT owner who would like to donate proceeds of an NFT sale to Del-Mar-Va Council please reach out to us by email

Is my Cryptocurrency or Stock charitable donation tax deductible?

Yes, your cryptocurrency and/or stock donation is tax deductible!* Del-Mar-Va Council Boy Scouts of America offers supporters who want to donate cryptocurrency or stocks to charity the ability to give in a tax-efficient way. The IRS classifies cryptocurrency and stock donations as property, meaning they are not subject to capital gains tax and are tax deductible to the fullest extent permitted by law.

*Please consult your tax advisor. You must provide at least your first and last name and an email address to receive a tax receipt.
