What is a donor-advised fund?
A donor-advised fund (DAF) is a type of giving program that allows you to combine the most favorable tax benefits with the flexibility to easily support your favorite charities.
Make an irrevocable, tax-deductible donation to a public charity that sponsors a donor-advised fund program.
Advise the investment allocation of the donated assets (any investment growth is tax-free).
Recommend grants to qualified public charities of your choice, such as The Marine Mammal Center.
Donor-advised funds are a great way to plan your charitable giving and support The Marine Mammal Center.
