Discover Giving with a Federation
Donor-Advised Fund

A Streamlined, Flexible, Tax-Smart
Philanthropy Vehicle

A donor-advised fund (DAF) is an account that enables you to deposit assets, receive a tax deduction on your donations, and recommend charitable grants or impact investments over time. With a Federation DAF, you have a flexible, easy-to-use, and tax-smart vehicle for all your giving with the added benefit of championing the Jewish Community. Donate to your favorite nonprofits and let us help you discover new ways to invest and give that reflect your philanthropic priorities.

Setting up a DAF is quick and straightforward with minimal administrative requirements. This is one of the reasons DAFs are growing in popularity.

At the Federation, your DAF can be a lasting legacy, offering you the foundation for instilling a tradition of giving within your family that can endure for generations.

Establishing a DAF is more than just a financial transaction. Our philanthropy advisors provide personalized recommendations that draw on our expertise and connections in the Jewish community and beyond. Let us help you mobilize your philanthropic dollars to reflect your values and commitment to tikkun olam (healing the world).
