Give From a Donor-Advised Fund

Benefits of Donor-Advised Funds

Immediate Tax Benefits

When you contribute to a DAF, you receive an immediate tax deduction for the full amount, even if you distribute the funds to charities over time. Additionally, contributions of appreciated assets (stocks, mutual funds, real estate, etc.) can help you avoid capital gains taxes while maximizing your charitable impact.

Strategic and Flexible

You can fund your DAF during high-income years for maximum tax advantage and distribute gifts to nonprofits over time. Funds in DAFs can be invested and grow tax-free, increasing the total amount available for giving and offering flexibility to donors who want to make a long-term philanthropic impact. 

Simple and Efficient

DAFs allow donors to support multiple organizations without having to track numerous tax receipts by centralizing all giving, reducing paperwork, and streamlining donation management.
