GIVE YOUR CRYPTOCURRENCY

Why Do We Accept Cryptocurrency Donations?
MidAmerica Nazarene University Foundation recognizes the growing significance of cryptocurrency in today’s economy. Donors may find it beneficial to make cryptocurrency contributions and should consult their tax advisor regarding how these donations may fit into their tax strategy.

Why Donate Cryptocurrency?
For donors in the United States, the IRS has classified cryptocurrency as a form of property. This means that when you donate Bitcoin or other cryptocurrencies to a 501(c)(3) nonprofit, such as the MNU Foundation, you may be required to pay capital gains tax on donated cryptocurrency and still be able to claim a deduction for your gift. Please consult your tax advisor for more information.

MidAmerica Nazarene University Foundation Gift Acceptance Requirements
In accordance with the MNU Foundation Gift Acceptance Policy, all contributions of cryptocurrency are immediately converted to cash upon receipt and cannot be refunded for any reason. While we are happy to honor requests for public anonymity, donors must identify themselves when making a cryptocurrency charitable contribution.

For more information, contact Associate Vice President Christa Jenkins at ccjenkins@mnu.edu or 913.971.3607

Make your gift through our cryptocurrency partner.

GIVE TO A MEMORIAL OR TRIBUTE

Memorial and tribute gifts are a great way to celebrate your loved one while supporting the mission of MNU. When you make your donation, you can select a recipient to be notified of your gift and we will send them a personalized message.

EMPLOYER GIFT MATCHING

Many companies and corporate foundations encourage their employees’ philanthropic efforts by matching their contributions to non-profit organizations such as MidAmerica Nazarene University.  Some companies will even match the donations made by retirees and/or spouses.  Corporate matching gifts are an important source of annual giving funds for MNU. In most cases, MidAmerica receives dollar-for-dollar matches. But in some cases, the company’s match doubles or triples the gift of the employee. Therefore, you have the opportunity to double or even triple the impact of your gift!
