Ep 5: What is a Donor Advised Fund and why have one?


Listen Later

What is a Donor Advised Fund? How does it work and why would you want to open one? What exactly are the tax savings? And be sure to listen to the end where I review some real-world strategies used by clients.

We cover topics such as:

  • A Donor Advised Fund is simply an account that you own.
  • How to open a Donor Advised Fund
  • How to transfer money into a DAF
  • Why most Americans do not get a tax deduction for their charitable gifting
  • How to use a "bunching" strategy.
  • How to use a DAF in high-income years such as a bonus or exercising stock options or an IPO
