What Is a
Donor-Advised Fund?

A Donor Advised Fund (DAF) is a simple and flexible way to support the causes you care about. You make a charitable contribution, receive an immediate tax benefit, and then recommend grants to the nonprofits of your choice over time. ICF manages the investments and handles all the administration.

How to Start a Fund

Starting a Donor-Advised Fund is straightforward. Our Philanthropic Advisors will help you design a giving plan that reflects your values, set up the fund, and guide you through the grant recommendation process.

Contact us to schedule a conversation about how a Donor-Advised Fund can simplify and amplify your charitable giving.

Endowed vs. Non-Endowed Funds

Endowed Donor-Advised Fund

An endowed fund is designed to last forever. Your contributions are invested for long-term growth, and a portion of the earnings is available for you to recommend grants each year.

  • Creates a permanent philanthropic resource you can direct year after year
  • Annual grant recommendations are made from investment earnings, preserving the principal
  • Your fund grows over time, increasing its impact

Minimum to establish: $25,000 (can be pledged over five years)

Non-Endowed Donor-Advised Fund

A non-endowed fund gives you more immediate flexibility. You can recommend grants that draw down the fund balance, making it ideal for donors who want to direct their giving now rather than building a permanent fund.

  • Recommend grants that exceed investment earnings
  • Fund can be spent down over time
  • Ideal for focused, near-term philanthropic goals

Minimum to establish: $25,000
