Donor-Advised Funds
A donor-advised fund, or DAF, is a charitable giving method that allows you to combine the most favorable tax benefits with the flexibility to support your favorite causes.
You'll receive a tax credit when you “donate” cash or assets to your DAF account. Your DAF account can increase in value, and it's tax-free. At your direction, funds are distributed directly to the organization you have chosen.
A gift from your donor-advised fund to Seeds for a Future will help rural families in Guatemala as they work hard to have sufficient food, better nutrition, and the passion of self-reliance.
If you don’t already have a donor-advised fund, they’re simple to set up through a financial institution or community foundation. Below are some reasons you may want to start one:
-
Cash, stock, and other assets generate a tax credit when placed in your DAF account.
-
Your DAF account will grow, tax-free, through investment by the financial institution.
-
A strategic donation to a DAF can manage tax liability on a windfall -- for example, an unexpected inheritance – and allow you to distribute support to your causes over time.
