Dawn Mountain has made it easy to initiate your DAF grant recommendation

Donor-advised fund (DAF) giving is simple. If you have an account with a charitable sponsor (such as Fidelity Charitable, Schwab Charitable, Vanguard, or others) you can recommend a DAF grant today using our Federal EIN #76-0507052.

What is a donor-advised fund (DAF)? 

A donor-advised fund (DAF) is a philanthropic giving vehicle like a charitable savings account. It provides an immediate tax benefit to you and allows you to easily support Dawn Mountain over time. Generally, you can invest cash and appreciated securities, as well as other assets that Dawn Mountain may not be able to accept as a direct gift.

How do donor-advised funds work?

DAFs can be easily set up through your financial institution or a community foundation to serve as a flexible charitable giving vehicle. For more information on how to establish a DAF, contact your community foundation or financial advisor.  

 

Why are donor-advised funds used?​

Note: Individual situations vary, so donors should consult their advisors.​

• Easy to turn your portfolio into an impactful gift to save lives.

• Eliminates capital gains on donated stock. DAF giving accounts have the potential to grow, possibly providing additional funding when you are ready to make a gift.

• You can easily set up recurring DAF gifts, which help us stay prepared for the next emergency.
• You can quickly put your charitable dollars into action to respond to emergencies and disasters with an immediate grant.

"Before giving, the mind of the giver is happy; 

While giving, the mind of the giver is made peaceful; 

And having given, the mind of the giver is uplifted."
