How Do Donor-Advised Funds Work?

Donor-Advised Funds streamline the giving process and make it easier to support the causes you care about, including èßäÖ±²¥. You begin by setting up a fund through a sponsoring organization—often a community foundation, public charity, or investment firm. Many popular brokerages, such as Charles Schwab, Vanguard, and Fidelity, offer Donor-Advised Funds. You then make contributions of cash, stock, or other assets to your Donor-Advised Fund and take an immediate charitable deduction.

Once your DAF is established, you can recommend grants to èßäÖ±²¥ College and may even be able to direct your support to specific priorities. Although you do not receive an additional tax deduction from these grants, the contributions to your DAF are generally deductible, and any investment growth is usually tax-free.

A qualified charitable distribution (QCD) can further your philanthropic goals and help maximize the tax benefits of giving. If you are age 70½ or older and have a traditional IRA, consider donating all or part of your annual required minimum distribution to èßäÖ±²¥. A QCD allows you to make a charitable gift directly from your IRA without having to realize the distribution as taxable income.
