A Donor-Advised Fund (DAF) is a simple and effective way to manage your charitable giving. By recommending grants from your DAF, you can support Seattle JazzED’s mission to provide equitable music education to students while enjoying tax benefits.

What is a Donor-Advised Fund?

A DAF is a charitable giving account, often offered by financial institutions and community foundations, that allows you to set aside assets for charitable giving. You can then recommend grants from your DAF to Seattle JazzED and other nonprofits over time.

Contributions to a DAF are tax-deductible in the year they are made. The funds then grow tax-free, giving you more giving power over time.
