Donor-Advised Funds (DAFs) are an excellent way to simplify your charitable giving to Endangered Species International. Your support provides the foundation needed to protect threatened species around the world, taking on illegal poachers and loggers, educating children on environmental issues, mobilizing citizens and local communities to plant native trees, and working tirelessly to safeguard vast areas of rainforest and coral reefs for generations to come.
Donor-advised funds are the fastest-growing charitable giving vehicle in the United States because they are one of the easiest and most tax-advantageous ways to give to charity like Endangered Species International. A Donor Advised Fund (DAF) is a type of giving program administered by a third party that allows you to combine the most favorable tax benefits with the flexibility. It is created for the purpose of managing charitable donations on behalf of an organization, family or individual. An increasingly popular charitable vehicle, DAFs are an excellent way to both simplify your charitable giving and facilitate your strategic philanthropic goals. DAFs allow donors to give cash, stock and other assets where the donor receives an immediate tax deduction when the contribution is made but can grant specified amounts to the charities of their choice at a later time.
How It Works
1. Establish your DAF by making an irrevocable, tax-deductible donation to the charity that sponsors a DAF program
2. Advise the investment allocation of the donated assets (any investment growth is tax-free)
3. Recommend grants to Endangered Species International
If I have already a DAF, how do I use the DAF Direct form?
1. Select “Endangered Species International” from the "Donate now from:" field.
2. Enter the amount (in dollars) you would like to recommend in the "Amount:" field.
3. Click on the "NEXT" button to proceed to the sponsoring organization's website to complete your donor advised fund transaction. Please note, you will be directed to an external website to complete your transaction.
