Mark your calendars! Announcing DAF Day 2024 will be October 10.
DAF Day is an event dedicated to donors using Donor-Advised Funds (DAFs) to support organizations across the country. Whether you are a seasoned philanthropist or new to charitable giving, DAF Day is an opportunity to learn, engage, and contribute to causes that matter most to you.
What is DAF Day?
DAF Day is a celebration of philanthropy facilitated through Donor-Advised Funds. These funds offer a flexible and tax-efficient way for donors to support charities. By setting up a DAF, donors can make a charitable contribution, receive an immediate tax deduction, and then recommend grants from the fund over time.
Why October 10?
The choice of October 10 is not random. It symbolizes the importance of giving 10/10—being the best version of a philanthropist you can be. This day emphasizes the value of planned giving, encouraging individuals to think strategically about their charitable contributions.

The Impact of DAFs
DAFs have become a powerful tool in philanthropy, allowing donors to grow their charitable contributions over time through investment, and then strategically disburse funds to charities. On DAF Day, we celebrate the impact these funds have on various causes worldwide, from education and healthcare to environmental protection and social justice.
Looking Ahead
DAF Day aims to build a community of informed and engaged philanthropists who use Donor-Advised Funds to create lasting change.
Join us on October 10, 2024, for a day of learning, giving, and celebration. Together, we can make the world a better place, one grant at a time.
