Donor Advised Funds
A Donor Advised Fund (DAF) can be an excellent option for managing your charitable giving. A DAF allows you to distribute gifts to multiple charities during your lifetime, and after you pass, your children can continue your philanthropic legacy.
Flowchart:
Donor transfers stock or cash to DAF, which then makes charitable distributions.
Benefits of a Donor Advised Fund
- Provides a flexible tool for ongoing charitable contributions
- Offers a more tax-efficient and cost-effective alternative to establishing a private foundation
- Allows you to receive a charitable income tax deduction in the year you make your contribution
How a Donor Advised Fund Works
- You make an initial, irrevocable gift of cash or stock to establish a DAF with a sponsoring organization.
- The assets within your DAF grow tax-free.
- Each year, you recommend which charities will receive gifts from your DAF.
Make a Gift From Your Donor Advised Fund
Your DAF offers several benefits, including the ability to make a single, larger gift to the fund and then distribute donations to us or other charities over time. To contribute to our organization, simply use the "DAF DIRECT DONATION" option or contact your DAF provider. We will gratefully acknowledge your gift as a DAF distribution.
