Donor Advised Funds

The fastest growing means by which to make a “non-Cash” gift to the non-profits people value most, Donor Advised Funds are easy to manage and use.

Functioning as a “Philanthropic Savings Account” for your charitable giving, this type of contribution provides opportunities for additional tax benefits, and are solely earmarked for supporting institutions whose missions you believe in.

If you choose to designate WBGO as one of the organizations who will be the recipient of a donation from your DAF (and we hope you will) here is some basic information to help with that:
