The Donor-Advised Fund (DAF) is an increasingly popular way to make a charitable gift. DAFs can provide you with immediate tax benefits while making your charitable giving easier. Here are two simple ways you can make a gift through your DAF:

  • Make an outright gift now by recommending a grant to ÅÝܽ¶ÌÊÓƵ.
  • Create a succession plan to recommend that ÅÝܽ¶ÌÊÓƵ receive all or a portion of the fund value upon the termination of the fund.

You can select the option that best suits your philanthropic and financial goals to support ÅÝܽ¶ÌÊÓƵ. Just contact your Donor-Advised Fund administrator to recommend a grant to ÅÝܽ¶ÌÊÓƵ or to discuss a succession plan.

If you include ÅÝܽ¶ÌÊÓƵ in your plans, please let us know and be sure to use our legal name and federal tax ID.
