Donor Advised Fund (DAF)

A donor-advised fund is a flexible, tax-advantaged giving account from which you can recommend grants over time.

A Donor Advised Fund functions like a charitable giving account established with the Georgia Baptist Foundation.

You can make contributions of cash, appreciated securities, or other assets, receive a charitable deduction in the year of the gift, and then recommend grants to ministries over time.

A DAF helps simplify your giving, consolidate records, and involve family members in making grant recommendations.

Because appreciated assets can be contributed without first selling them, you may avoid capital gains taxes while increasing the amount available for ministry.
