What is a DAF?

A Donor Advised Fund (DAF) is a charitable giving account maintained by a public charity. Donors make contributions to the fund and may recommend grants to other qualified nonprofit organizations over time.

​

The structure allows donors to separate the timing of their charitable contribution from the timing of their charitable grants, providing flexibility in how and when philanthropic decisions are made.

​

Key characteristics of a DAF include:

• Contributions are irrevocable charitable gifts
• The sponsoring charity retains legal control over the assets
• Donors may recommend grants to qualified nonprofits
• Assets may remain invested for future grantmaking
• Families may involve multiple generations in philanthropic decisions

​

Donor Advised Funds have become one of the most widely used charitable giving vehicles because they allow donors to engage in philanthropy in a structured yet flexible manner.
