Donor-advised funds

A donor-advised fund (DAF) is a giving vehicle administered by a third party. DAFs allow you to give cash, stock, and other assets and receive a tax deduction when the contribution is made—simplifying your charitable giving to RAND while offering favorable tax benefits.

Please note that you will receive an acknowledgment for your gift to RAND, but not a charitable receipt for tax purposes. The contribution to your donor-advised fund is tax-deductible, not your distribution to RAND.
