Donor-Advised Funds

Donating directly from your DonorAdvised Fund (DAF) is a cost-effective and convenient way to support our food bank, and it’s a great way to invest in our community. It gives you the flexibility to recommend how much and how often money is granted to Community Food Share; it also provides tax advantages. 

How Do Donor-Advised Funds Work?

A DAF is a giving account established at a public charity like a community foundation, Fidelity, or Schwab. When you give through your DAF, the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) treats your gift as a charitable contribution. You have the flexibility of contributing to the fund as frequently as you like and advising the DAF when and to which charitable organizations you would like to support.
