We improve the quality of life for dogs living outdoors by building free fences to get dogs off chains, providing spay/neuter and urgent vet care, and running a pet food bank.
A donor-advised fund (DAF) is a type of giving program that allows you to combine the most favorable tax benefits while supporting Fences For Fido.
An increasingly popular charitable vehicle, DAFs are an excellent way to both simplify your charitable giving and facilitate your strategic philanthropic goals.
What are the main advantages of a donor-advised fund?
Simplicity – The DAF sponsor handles all record-keeping, disbursements, and tax receipts.
Flexibility – Timing of your tax deduction can be separate from your charitable decision making.
Tax-efficiency – Contributions are tax-deductible and any investment growth in the DAF is tax-free. It is also easy to donate long term appreciated securities, eliminating capital gains taxes and allowing you to support multiple charities from one block of stock.
Family legacy – A DAF is a powerful way to build or continue a tradition of family philanthropy.
No start-up costs – There is no cost to establish a donor-advised fund. However, there are often minimum initial charitable contributions.
No transaction fees – Once approved, 100% of your recommended grant goes to Fences For Fido.
Privacy if desired – Donors may choose to remain anonymous to Fences For Fido.
