How it Works
- Establish your Donor Advised Fund by making an irrevocable, tax-deductible donation to a financial company that operates a DAF program, like Vanguard, Fidelity, Schwab Charitable*.
- Determine the investment allocation of the donated assets (any investment growth is tax-free).
- Recommend grants to Sempervirens Fund whenever you wish to make a gift. We advise entering Sempervirens Fund’s full legal name or employer identification number (EIN) 94-2155097 when searching a DAF charity database.
*Financial institutions generally charge an administrative fee on the assets in a DAF. These fees vary by sponsoring organization.
