Donate Through 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. An increasingly popular charitable vehicle, DAF’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, it’s possible that the sponsoring organization will not share your information with us. Please email Katie Reitter at kreitter@savesfbay.org when you’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 “Donate now from” field.
• Enter the amount (in dollars) you would like to recommend in the “Amount” field.
• Click on the “NEXT” button to proceed to the sponsoring organization’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.
