How Do Donor Advised Funds (DAFs) Funds Work?
What is a DAF or Donor-Advised Fund?
This charitable investment account allows individuals to donate to a non-profit organization while retaining advisory privileges.
What is the benefit to giving via DAF or Donor-Advised Fund?
Contributions help donors maximize tax benefits.
Is a Donor-Advised Fund Right For Me?
A donor-advised fund (DAF) is a charitable investment account that allows individuals to donate to a non-profit organization while retaining advisory privileges over how those assets are invested and ultimately distributed to other qualified charities.
Contributions via DAFs help donors maximize tax benefits. Donors can contribute to their investment account and receive an immediate tax benefit while they build a philanthropic strategy, they can recommend grants when they are ready. Charitable assets may grow over time, making more charitable dollars available to a donor’s favored nonprofits.
