Donor-Advised Funds

If you have a donor advised fund (DAF), now is the time to use the funds to make a positive and immediate impact for people with developmental and behavioral disabilities.

Giving to Damar from your donor advised fund is simple.

Call your fund manager and recommend a grant to Damar Services Foundation, and they will send a check directly to Damar from your fund.

The grant will arrive at Damar with only the fund’s name and address on it unless you request otherwise. Please request for your name and address to be included. The Damar Services Foundation would love to recognize you for your generosity. You can call us at (317) 856-5201, ext. 238.

Things to remember:

  • If you have a donor advised fund, you received an immediate tax deduction when you contributed to the fund. Often, well-intentioned people with donor advised funds allow their fund to grow without disbursing grants to charities. This means that for tax purposes, you have given to charity, but no one has benefited from your donation.
  • You are able to recommend grants to qualified nonprofit organizations over time. The ability to recommend distributions to qualified charities can be shared with and passed down to family members so that you can create a family legacy of giving.
