(with Pat Duffy)"},"content":{"rendered":"<p>In this episode, I have the pleasure of chatting with my friend, Pat Duffy, founder of The Giving Block, a crypto fundraising platform. As a nonprofit leader, you don&#8217;t want to miss our conversation because we&#8217;re going to talk about how you can raise TONS of money by accepting crypto donations.<\/p>\n<p>Now, I know what you&#8217;re thinking, &#8220;Joan, cryptocurrency is for the 1% and my organization is just not big enough.&#8221; But trust me, you&#8217;re leaving money on the table that could be invested in the work we all know is greater than the resources you have to make it happen.<\/p>\n<p>Pat is a cryptocurrency guru and the founder of a business that wants nonprofits to raise massive amounts of money to solve the big problems in our society. He has helped thousands of charities, schools, healthcare systems, and faith-based nonprofit clients fundraise crypto donations, including Save the Children, United Way Worldwide, and St. Jude.<\/p>\n<p>During our chat, Pat and I bust a few myths about fundraising with crypto and discuss the burning crypto questions that are on your mind. He even shares some tips on how to accept crypto donations and reach out to potential crypto philanthropists.<\/p>\n<p>The average age of a crypto donor is in their 30s, and the average income is $110K, with an average donation size of $10,500! And these donors are always looking for new opportunities to give back. So, if you&#8217;re interested in expanding your pool of donors or inviting younger people to join your cause (and who isn&#8217;t?), then you really need to tune in.<\/p>\n<h2>Click play to learn:<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li>How do nonprofits fundraise cryptocurrency?
