Donor Advised Funds

Simplify your giving. Donor advised funds offer a flexible option for supporting multiple organizations or taking charitable deduction now and recommending grants later.

How It Works

A donor advised fund, or DAF, is like a charitable savings account with the sole purpose of supporting charitable organizations you care about. You have the flexibility to contribute to the fund as frequently as you like and recommend grants to qualified charities that are important to you, like the Jane Goodall Institute USA.

Benefits of Giving Through a Donor Advised Fund

Donor advised funds offer both flexibility and tax advantages.

  • You receive a tax deduction the year in which you contribute to your DAF.
  • You have the flexibility to grant specific amounts to organizations of your choice.
  • You have the option to recommend recurring grants for your convenience.

A Gift for the Future

Donor advised fund agreements allow you to select one or more beneficiaries to receive the remaining assets of the fund after your life. Many donors have chosen to name a charitable organization as the beneficiary of the funds that remain. You can also choose to designate an organization to receive a portion of the remaining account value while leaving the balance for your loved ones to continue your philanthropic legacy.
