A donor-advised fund (DAF) is an investment account that is used for charitable giving.
It is composed of donations made by individuals and is administered by a third party.
The third party is called the sponsoring organization.
It offers immediate tax relief and allows you to support your favorite charities immediately or over time.
A donor makes an irrevocable gift to a donor-advised fund and receives a tax deduction for the year the gift is made.
Once the contribution is made, the sponsoring organization has legal control over the funds and the donor can make grant recommendations to the charity of their choice.
The IRS has specific guidelines around the kinds of organizations that are eligible to receive grants as well as the purposes these grants can serve.
For example, grants can only be made to qualified charities and cannot be made to a person, or the donor cannot receive more than an incidental benefit, so it cannot be used for the admission price for an event such as a gala.
The DAF donor receives tax documentation from the sponsoring organization of the DAF while a direct donor receives tax documentation from the charity.
