What is a donor-advised fund (DAF)?

A donor-advised fund (DAF) is a philanthropic giving vehicle like a charitable savings account. It provides an immediate tax benefit to you, and allows you to easily support Reap Goodness and other charities of your choice over time. Generally, you can invest cash and appreciated securities, as well as other assets that Reap Goodness may not be able to accept as a direct gift.

How do donor-advised funds work?

DAFs can be easily set up through your financial institution or a community foundation to serve as a flexible charitable giving vehicle. For more information on how to establish a DAF, contact your community foundation or financial advisor.

Why are donor-advised funds used?

  • You can quickly put your charitable dollars into action to respond to emergencies and disasters with an immediate grant.
