Gifts of Stock/Appreciated Securities

Donor Advised Fund
Do you have a Donor Advised Fund (DAF) or private foundation? If you have undistributed funds waiting to be put to work, please reach out to your DAF or foundation administrator now to recommend a grant to Ronald McDonald House Charities of San Diego.
Donate Cryptocurrency
We partner with The Giving Block to make it easy to donate Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies to benefit families with critically ill children.
Since donated crypto assets aren’t subject to long-term capital gains taxes, donating crypto is not just tax-efficient. It also enables donors to give up to 20% more to their favorite charities that they would have otherwise paid in taxes. Consult a crypto-savvy tax professional or read more on our website.
