What is a Donor-Advised Fund?
Donor-advised funds are the fastest-growing charitable giving vehicle because they are the easiest, most tax-savvy way to give.
A donor-advised fund (DAF) is a tax-advantaged charitable giving account you can set up for the sole purpose of supporting your favorite nonprofits. You can contribute cash, stocks, or other assets into the DAF. You’ll receive a tax deduction when funds are deposited into you DAF account.
The funds are invested for tax-free growth, and over time you recommend donations to the charities you want to support. You get to choose when, how much, and how often to recommend grants for nonprofits like CAP-HC.
How does a daf work?
- You make an irrevocable tax-deductible contribution (cash, stock, real estate, etc.) to a DAF-sponsoring organization, community foundation, or financial institution to establish the fund.
- You receive a tax receipt and tax benefits when funds are deposited into your DAF.
- The DAF-sponsoring organization oversees the funds, which now legally belong to them, as they grow tax free. You retain advisory privileges over the investment strategy and disbursements made from the DAF.
- You recommend one-time or recurring donations to tax-exempt 501(c)(3) charitable organizations that are classified as public charities under 509(a).
- Once the DAF-sponsoring organization approves your request, the donation is made to the qualified charitable organization, such as CAP-HC.
What are the benefits of giving through a DAF?
- Support charities you believe in through strategic giving over time.
- Take advantage of immediate tax benefits with the ability to distribute funds later.
- Consolidate all your charitable giving and simplify your tax documentation.
