How do I make a donation from my donor-advised fund (DAF) vault to a nonprofit organization?

Contact your donor-advised fund sponsor and sign a bitcoin transaction.

You can make donations to nonprofit organizations in bitcoin without converting to dollars. However, University Impact can convert the bitcoin to dollars and send them to the causes you care about, so that nonprofit organizations do not need to understand bitcoin. 

 

How to make a donation from your DAF shared vault

  1. Sign in to your University Impact account.
  2. Once you author the gift from the University Impact portal, University Impact will request you to sign a transaction with your hardware wallet.
  3. Sign in to your Unchained account and select your DAF vault from your vault dashboard.
  4. Follow the on-screen instructions to sign the transaction.
  5. University Impact will send the donation to the chosen nonprofit organization.
