Donate Cryptocurrency
to Save the Children

Children around the world are facing immense challenges. The devastating impacts of climate change, escalating conflicts, the rising cost of living, and the setbacks from the Covid-19 pandemic four years later are all pushing children to the brink. The interconnectedness of these crises is creating unprecedented levels of global hunger, poverty, and displacement.

For more than a century, Save the Children has been a champion for children’s rights. Driven by a timeless mission, we believe that every child deserves a healthy start in life, the opportunity to learn, and protection from harm.


How do your crypto donations support our mission?

We do whatever it takes to save children, but we cannot do it without you.

Save the Children is on the ground in over 100 countries, working tirelessly to provide relief to the children and families who need your help the most. Among those are children living in dangerous conflict zones such as Gaza, children fleeing violence in places like Ukraine, Sudan and Congo, and families fighting the impacts of worsening global hunger and climate shocks in places like Somalia and Afghanistan.

Your cryptocurrency donations to our Children’s Emergency Fund help us keep children healthy, educated and safe, every day and in times of crisis. Together, we can build a world where all children have a fair chance to thrive.

If you share our vision, help us reach our $10 million donation goal and join our HODL Hope Campaign.
