Donor-Advised Funds

Make a gift with a donor-advised fund

A donor-advised fund (DAF) is a charitable investment account that allows you to combine immediate tax benefits with the flexibility to support Planned Parenthood — through cash, appreciated securities, and other assets.

Ways to give through a donor-advised fund

• Make an outright gift now by recommending a grant to Planned Parenthood Federation of America (PPFA).
• Make recurring gifts with ease so that your contributions can take immediate action when most needed in an unpredictable sexual and reproductive health care landscape.
• Create a succession plan to recommend that PPFA receive all or a portion of your DAF's value upon its termination.

You can select the option that best suits your philanthropic and financial goals. Just contact your DAF administrator to recommend a grant to PPFA and your impact will be shared with PPFA, your local affiliate, and health centers most in need.

Why choose a donor-advised fund?

• Creating a DAF can provide you with immediate tax benefits while making your charitable giving easier for years to come.
• DAF dollars are invested for tax-free growth and individuals can recommend donations to charities of their choice over time.

How it works

1. Establish a DAF at a sponsoring organization. This could be a community foundation, a public charity with a DAF program, or even one of the well-known financial services companies that sponsor DAFs. Check with the sponsor about the minimum contribution required to start a donor-advised fund.
2. Make an initial contribution to start your fund. You can contribute cash or appreciated assets such as stocks or mutual funds. You can get an immediate income tax charitable deduction for your contribution.
3. Once established, you can recommend your favorite public charities, such as Planned Parenthood Federation of America, to receive grants from your DAF.

You can also create a succession plan with your DAF sponsor to recommend that some or all of the remaining assets in your fund at your passing go to PPFA and other charities that are important to you. Please complete this request form for more information about including PPFA in your DAF succession plan.
