Donor Advised Funds are excellent tools for individuals who want an active role in grantmaking. These funds allow donors to recommend charitable organizations to receive grants from their fund. DAFs are among the most popular forms of giving.
The Community Foundation of Utah offers a variety of services and support to make giving even more satisfying.
- Our staff work directly with you to make sure you always have the support and answers you need. If you need help finding a charity that meets your objectives, we do the research.
- You can target your gift to a specific area, or allow the agency to use the funds for operating support.
- Our research into the needs of Utah's nonprofits can help you identify where your funds will do the most good in these challenging times.
- We conduct due diligence on all grantees. We verify their tax-exempt status and charitable missions, and complete all necessary paperwork for grants administration.
- Each quarter you'll receive a statements on your fund -- where you dollars have been invested, how your fund has grown, and the assets to continue your charitable work.
- Our Investment Committee is dedicated to growing the assets of the fund you establish.
- Our community expertise can lead you to effective, innovative organizations and strategies you wish to support.
- We are happy to work not only with you, but also with your family, partner, children and grandchildren to foster family philanthropy.
Giving is easy and straightforward with no surprises in the fine print.
