What’s a DAF? It’s a Donor Advised Fund for charity created by investors and administered by a sponsor such as Fidelity, Vanguard and Schwab or a local community foundation. A donor who opens a DAF sets aside money for charitable contributions, receives an immediate tax benefit, and can then recommend donations from their DAF to nonprofits over time.

Those who commit to distributing half their DAF money to nonprofits by 9 a.m. October 10 are eligible to have their donations matched. Please consider donating half your DAF to the Children’s Receiving Home and other nonprofits in need by October 10. We will help make sure your contribution has a chance to qualify for matching funds. More information is available at www.halfmydaf.com.
