For over 30 years, Pathlight HOME has been an innovative leader in the fight to end homelessness in Central Florida - anchored by our commitment to the Housing First Model.
As the first and largest provider of this model in our region, we know it has allowed us to help and safely house more individuals when compared with other approaches. More than 600 formerly homeless men & women are housed in our two apartment complexes & receive supportive services to STAY housed!
We continue lighting the path forward through our partnership with The Giving Block, allowing us to accept donations in the form of cryptocurrency to support and expand our mission.

Why donate crypto directly? Taxes!
There’s a reason high net worth individuals tend to donate property instead of cash. Donating cryptocurrency directly to a 501c3 nonprofit is more tax efficient and can save you money.
The IRS classifies cryptocurrency as property for tax purposes which means it is typically the most tax efficient way to support your favorite cause. When donating crypto, you receive a tax deduction for the fair market value of the crypto, and you avoid the capital gains tax you would have incurred if you had sold the crypto and then made a donation. That means you’re able to donate more, as well as deduct more on your tax return. The difference? Sometimes more than 30%.
If you provide an email, you will automatically receive a tax receipt after donating.
Donations made here will support our mission at Pathlight HOME and will not be designated to a specific project or location. Your generous gift will be used to address our greatest needs. Cryptocurrency donations are not refundable.
