Donor Advised Funds

What is a Donor Advised Fund?

A donor advised fund is a charitable giving program managed by a nonprofit institution—known as a sponsoring organization—and created for the purpose of managing charitable gifts on behalf of donors.

What are the Advantages of a Donor Advised Fund?

• Your gifts to your donor advised fund entitle you to an immediate income tax deduction at the time of contribution.
• You avoid capital gains tax on appreciated assets you place in your donor advised fund.
• Your fund’s investment gains accumulate tax free.
• Funds are distributed to St. Anthony’s in your name and immediately put to use to provide essential support to San Franciscans living in poverty.

What if my Donor Advised Fund is with a sponsoring organization that is not part of DAF Direct?
