Donor Advised Funds

A donor advised fund (or DAF) might be a great solution for you. You can use a DAF to distribute gifts to charities of your choice. With a DAF, you can make gifts to New Pathways for Youth during your lifetime, and when you pass away, your children can inherit and continue your legacy of giving.

You enjoy several benefits with your donor advised fund

  • Establish a flexible vehicle for annual charitable giving
  • Benefit from a more tax and cost-efficient alternative to a private foundation
  • Obtain a charitable income tax deduction in the year of your gift

How a donor advised fund works

  • You make an initial, irrevocable gift of cash or stock to fund a DAF at a sponsoring organization
  • The assets in your DAF grow tax-free
  • You make annual recommendations on gifts to be made from your DAF

Gifts from your donor advised fund

Your donor advised fund has several advantages. You can make one larger gift to a DAF and then recommend grants to New Pathways for Youth. We will acknowledge your generous gift as a DAF distribution. Contact our philanthropy team at philanthropy@npfy.org or
