Unlock the full value of charitable contributions with one of the tax code's most underused tools.Quick Tax TipWith Art WernerCPE TodayWhat if you could give more, support your favorite causes for years to come, and still walk away with a sizable tax deduction—all in one smart move?Click here for more Art WernerThat's the opportunity donor-advised funds (DAFs) present, and the latest Quick Tax Tip brings clarity to a concept many donors and advisors overlook.“A donor-advised fund, by itself, is a charity,” Werner explains. “But the contribution we make to it is deductible within IRS limits—and what's really nice is you can lump your giving up front and spread it out over time.”For donors who no longer itemize due to the increased standard deduction post-TCJA, this opens the door to reclaiming lost tax benefits. Instead of giving $5,000 a year and missing out on deductions, you could contribute $50,000 in one year to a DAF—claim your deduction—then direct that money to charities over a decade.

Donor-advised funds (DAFs) are growing rapidly, presenting both challenges and opportunities for nonprofits. While they offer donors tax advantages, investment growth, and simplified giving, they also create barriers between nonprofits and the donors themselves. To effectively engage with DAF donors, nonprofits must proactively promote DAF giving options, retrain gift officers to discuss them, and build relationships with financial advisors and community foundations. By embracing DAFs and integrating them into fundraising strategies, organizations can strengthen donor relationships and unlock new philanthropic potential. The key is adapting to this shifting landscape rather than resisting it.

Today, I'm joined by Matt Eldridge, Executive Director of Realize Impact, on using Donor Advised Funds to innovate impact investing.Impact investing is often perceived as complex, requiring a balance between financial returns and social good.Realize Impact eliminates these barriers, providing a streamlined process that enables individuals, foundations, and donor-advised funds (DAFs) to invest in high-impact ventures while maintaining financial sustainability.How It WorksImpact investing through Realize Impact is facilitated via the Philanthropic Investment Grant (PHIG)—a simple and effective way to direct capital toward high-impact ventures.By recommending an investment and providing matching capital, donors can amplify their contributions while supporting meaningful change.Realize Impact simplifies impact investing into three steps:Grant Recommendation – Investors recommend an impact investment through a grant from a DAF, foundation, or personal funds.Due Diligence & Investment – Realize Impact conducts research, reviews terms, and executes the investment in debt, equity, or revenue-based funding.Returns & Reinvestment – 99% of the investment returns are donated back to the investor's recommended DAF, foundation, or nonprofit for reinvestment.This model allows investors to support impactful projects without the complexities of direct investment management.What is a Donor Advised Fund?A Donor Advised Fund is a philanthropic giving vehicle that allows donors to contribute funds, receive immediate tax benefits, and then recommend grants to eligible charities over time.Think of it as a charitable savings account, where individuals or families set aside funds dedicated to philanthropic purposes.These funds are managed by sponsoring organizations, such as community foundations, universities, or specialized charitable organizations, which administer the DAF on behalf of the donor.Unlocking Capital for Global SolutionsSignificant capital remains idle in donor-advised funds and foundations. Realize Impact mobilizes these funds into ventures addressing key global challenges such as:Climate change – Investing in renewable energy and sustainable business models.Economic empowerment – Supporting underrepresented entrepreneurs with access to capital.Social equity – Financing housing, education, and healthcare initiatives.By actively deploying philanthropic capital, Realize Impact maximizes both financial and social returns.Transparent Fee StructureRealize Impact offers a straightforward, affordable pricing model:$500 flat fee for investments of $10,000 or more.No fee for investments under $10,000 (though returns are not re-donated).This ensures accessibility while maintaining financial sustainability.Redefining Impact InvestingContrary to the belief that impact investing sacrifices returns, Realize Impact proves that financial and social benefits can align.By reinvesting returns into donor-advised funds and nonprofits, the organization amplifies the impact of every dollar. ----------------------------------------Thrive in the Impact Economy.Join 20k+.

In this episode of 'Tame the Mobile Beast,' host Tom Butta sits down with Adam Nash, CEO and Co-founder of Daffy, to delve into the inspiration and growth behind this innovative financial platform aimed at enhancing charitable giving. Adam reveals how Daffy is reimagining philanthropy by tackling two critical challenges that often prevent people from giving: financial uncertainty and choice paralysis. By allowing users to set aside money for charitable causes proactively, Daffy makes it easier for people to meet their philanthropic goals without the usual stress and guilt associated with last minute charitable contributions. The conversation also touches on the emotional connections people have with their charitable activities, emphasizing how understanding these human insights can considerably improve product design and user experience. Adam's broader vision for Daffy extends beyond a simple donation platform. He sees it as a communal space where individuals can connect, inspire each other, and amplify their collective impact.For anyone interested in the intersection of technology, personal finance, and philanthropy, this episode offers a rich exploration of how modern solutions can make giving both simpler and more meaningful.—Guest Quote“ 60M [American] households give to charity every year. It's more than half a trillion dollars a year, about 2% of GDP. And yet it had been underinvested in because really people just focused on the act of donating versus the more fundamental goal people had. And so we really started tackling this idea of what if we built an app like that, used all this modern technology, all these capabilities, and made it very easy for people to automatically put aside money every month so that when they want to give, they have that money.” – Adam Nash—Time Stamps 01:07 Meet Adam Nash, CEO of Daffy01:39 The concept of giving and Daffy's mission05:47 The birth of Daffy08:24 Designing for human emotions10:57 The role of technology in giving15:29 The story behind Daffy's name18:12 Adam Nash's personal journey and passion23:11 Connecting people through giving25:57 How to amplify impact29:05 Understanding and engaging members33:14 The power of early evangelists37:56 Rapid Fire Questions—LinksConnect with Adam Nash on LinkedInCheck out DaffyConnect with Tom Butta on LinkedInCheck out the Airship Website

In this episode of the First Day Podcast, host Bill Stanczykiewicz, Ed.D., speaks with Elaine Martyn, Senior Vice President, Private Donor Group, of Fidelity Charitable, to explore the role of donor-advised funds (DAFs) in modern philanthropy. Fidelity Charitable, the largest recipient of charitable donations in the United States, administers DAFs as a tool for strategic giving. Elaine explains how DAFs operate as “charitable investment accounts,” allowing donors to contribute assets, receive immediate tax benefits, and distribute grants to nonprofits over time, fostering a thoughtful and impactful approach to philanthropy. A key topic in the discussion is the flexibility and accessibility of DAFs. Elaine highlights Fidelity's efforts to democratize philanthropy by setting the entry point to open a DAF at zero dollars, with grants starting at just $50. This model appeals to a wide range of donors—from first-generation wealth earners to established philanthropists. Donors use DAFs to align their giving with personal values, support causes like education and healthcare, and involve their families in creating a legacy of generosity. On average, Fidelity Charitable donors give 23% of their DAF assets annually, surpassing the minimum 5% distribution required of private foundations. Elaine addresses common criticisms of DAFs, such as concerns that they act as "parking lots" for funds. She counters with data showing that DAFs disburse a higher proportion of funds than private foundations and often prioritize multi-year and unrestricted funding—key priorities for nonprofits. The conversation also touches on how nonprofits can engage DAF donors effectively by fostering relationships and providing clear avenues for giving, such as highlighting DAF options on their websites and offering electronic fund transfer systems for seamless transactions. The episode concludes with practical advice for fundraisers on leveraging DAFs to benefit their organizations. Elaine emphasizes the importance of building donor relationships over focusing on DAF host organizations like Fidelity. She encourages nonprofits to educate themselves about DAFs and consider them as a growing segment of philanthropic giving. Listeners are invited to explore resources from The Fundraising School, including courses and webinars, to deepen their understanding of DAFs and other fundraising strategies.

In this episode of All About Capital Campaigns, Amy Eisenstein hosts Melissa Bank Stepno from Helen Brown Group, a leading prospect research firm. Melissa brings her extensive knowledge to explore donor-advised funds (DAFs) and their transformative role in the nonprofit sector. With DAFs becoming a popular charitable giving vehicle, nonprofit leaders often have questions. Melissa explains what DAFs are, their tax advantages, and how they function as a “giving bank account” managed by nonprofits or financial institutions on behalf of donors. Discover the differences between DAF sponsors—community foundations, financial institutions, and single-issue funds like religious organizations—and how each contributes uniquely to the landscape of donor-advised funds. The episode dives into why donors choose DAFs beyond tax benefits, including simplicity, flexibility, and even anonymity. Melissa addresses a common question among nonprofit professionals: Are DAFs helping or hindering philanthropy? By unpacking both the advantages and challenges, such as the “distance” sometimes created between donor and organization, she sheds light on how fundraisers can build strong relationships with DAF holders and why this knowledge is crucial for campaign success. Amy and Melissa also discuss essential tools, like the DAFinitive database developed by the Helen Brown Group, which allows nonprofits to research and identify potential high-value DAF donors. Listen in for practical strategies to engage with DAF donors, including tips on how to leverage communication channels and online tools to facilitate DAF giving directly from your organization's website. By the end, you'll have a clear understanding of how to integrate DAFs into your fundraising strategy, connect with these uniquely positioned donors, and harness the full potential of donor-advised funds to boost your next campaign. Tune in to hear why understanding donor-advised funds is more important than ever for fundraisers and how DAFs can become a valuable part of your nonprofit's campaign strategy.
