A DAF allows you to streamline your charitable giving by consolidating contributions into one convenient account, receive immediate tax benefits, and recommend grants to the causes you care about—on your schedule. With low administrative burden and the ability to grow your fund over time, a DAF is an easy way to make philanthropy more strategic and meaningful while supporting the Jewish values of tzedakah and tikkun olam.
