what is a Donor-Advised Fund?
A donor advised fund (DAF) is a simple, flexible and tax-efficient way to help your favorite charities, including IFAW. Once you establish a DAF, you may recommend grants to IFAW (i.e., “advise” the fund to give us a grant)
recommending grants to ifaw
We welcome gifts of any amount in support of our mission and thank you for taking this step to help animals and people thrive together.
Gifts of $10,000 or more may be directed to any of our priorities and are a strategic way to leverage your philanthropic assets.
You may use the DAF Direct tool to recommend a grant to IFAW in a safe, secure, and simple way.
“I opened a DAF so I can avoid taxable consequences from selling stocks with large capital gains and still give to my favorite animal rescue organizations. I love the work that IFAW does, and I know that my gifts are saving and protecting animals in need.” - Carolyn in CA
