Cryptocurrency donations

Your cryptocurrency donations will support our mission to keep children healthy, educated and safe in times of crises.

All cryptocurrency donations will go to our Emergency Fund which not only enables us to respond immediately when a disaster strikes, it also allows us to respond to the countless ongoing crises around the world that don't hit the headlines.

By choosing to donate via cryptocurrency, your donation will be directed to Save the Children US, who owns the crypto wallet. Your donation will then go to our global Emergency Fund.

For more information, here is the link to Save the Children US’s webpage on cryptocurrency donations.

If you have any questions please e-mail: bitcoin@savechildren.org
