Why Give Through a DAF?
A Donor-Advised Fund (DAF) is like a charitable savings account. You can contribute to a DAF as much as you like and recommend gifts to benefit nonprofits that fit your timeline. It’s an easy and convenient way to:
- Give back with a simple, convenient option that requires little administrative work
- Time your tax deduction separately from your grant recommendations
- Donate appreciated assets while avoiding capital gains taxes
- Engage family members in philanthropy
- Give anonymously, if desired
