A Donor Advised Fund (DAF) is a charitable giving account that allows you to recommend grants to your favorite charities at your convenience. DAFs offer immediate tax benefits by providing charitable deductions in the year they are made, while also allowing your gift to grow tax-free in the future. They are a great low or no-cost alternative to forming and maintaining a private family foundation. Our No-Fee Donor Advised Funds are one of the most exciting new vehicles for supporting the ministries and charities you care about.
