Donate Through a Donor Advised Fund

Aโ€ฏdonor advised fund (DAF)โ€ฏis a type ofโ€ฏgiving programโ€ฏthat allows you to combine the mostโ€ฏfavorable tax benefitsโ€ฏwith theโ€ฏflexibilityโ€ฏto easily support your favorite charities. An increasingly popular charitable vehicle, DAFโ€™s are an excellent way to both simplify your charitable giving and facilitate your strategic philanthropic goals.

When you make a Donor-Advised Fund gift, itโ€™s possible that the sponsoring organization will not share your information with us. Please email Masha Gutkin at mgutkin@savesfbay.org when youโ€™ve made a gift so we can make sure to thank you and ensure that your gift gets to where it is intended.

How to Use the DAF Direct Form

  • Select the sponsoring organization from the โ€œDonate now fromโ€ field.
  • Enter the amount (in dollars) you would like to recommend in the โ€œAmountโ€ field.
  • Click on the โ€œNEXTโ€ button to proceed to the sponsoring organizationโ€™s website to complete your donor advised fund transaction. Please note, you will be directed to an external website to complete your transaction.
  • If you have a DAF with a sponsoring organization not represented on this list, you can still recommend grants.
