Do you know about Donor-Advised Funds (DAFs)?

This 3-letter word has been on a LOT of people’s minds, which is why I’m joined by Mitch Stein, Head of Strategy at Chariot, to learn how these tax-advantaged accounts are reshaping charitable giving.

Mitch introduces us to the revolutionary DAF Pay, an innovation that simplifies the donation process to feel just like using a credit card, making it easier for nonprofits to connect with donors.

We also talk about the democratization of DAFs, driven by major players like Fidelity and Schwab, which has opened the door for everyday donors to make a difference without the hurdles of high minimums and grant sizes.

Even leading nonprofits like the Michael J. Fox Foundation are capitalizing on DAFs to inspire increased generosity!

From creating engaging content to educating donors on viewing DAFs as active charitable wallets, Mitch generously shares how organizations can maintain top-of-mind awareness and encourage frequent use of DAFs.

P.S. Applications are now open for the next round of my Monthly Giving Mastermind. Visit positiveequation.com/mastermind to apply.
