Donor Advised Funds
A donor advised fund, or DAF, is like a charitable investment account for the sole purpose of supporting charitable organizations you care about. When you contribute cash, securities, or other assets to a donor advised fund, you are generally eligible to take an immediate tax deduction. Then those funds can be invested for tax-free growth, and you can recommend grants to virtually any IRS-qualified public charity, including The Arc NCR.
What are the main advantages of a donor-advised fund?
Simplicity: The donor-advised fund sponsor manages all administrative responsibilities, including record-keeping, grant distributions, and tax documentation.
Flexibility: Donors can receive an immediate tax deduction while taking time to thoughtfully decide when and where to recommend charitable gifts.
Tax Efficiency: Contributions are tax-deductible, and investments within the fund can grow tax-free. Donors can also contribute long-term appreciated assets, such as stock, helping avoid capital gains taxes.
Family Legacy: A donor-advised fund offers a meaningful way to involve family members in charitable giving and build a lasting tradition of philanthropy.
Stock Giving
Many of The Arc NCR supporters are turning to gifts of appreciated stock to maximize their impact on our mission while maximizing their savings.
Donating appreciated assets avoids federal capital gains taxes and provides a federal income tax deduction for the current market value of the gift. Most importantly, you’ll make a powerful, immediate impact and support people with intellectual and/or developmental disabilities to build better lives, one person at a time.
