#HalfMyDAF: Unlocking the potential of donor-advised funds
If you donate a portion of your DAF before September 30th, your contribution could be matched by the #HalfMyDAF campaign! #HalfMyDAF is a campaign to unlock the potential of Donor Advised Funds to support important causes. Here is the language from their website:
So we are issuing a challenge. From May 5 through September 30, 2020, you can nominate nonprofits to be eligible for matching grants of up to $10,000— and in eight cases up to $25,000. All you need to do is commit to granting half of your DAF by September 30th and start giving. About 300 nonprofits will receive matching grants—a total of $1.4 million in additional funding.
Our goal is to open up the system and motivate more giving today, when nonprofits can do so much to help those in need. When you take the #HalfMyDAF challenge, you’ll become a #HalfMyDAF Hero. Yes, it’s goofy. Hopefully it’s memorable.
Do you have a Donor Advised Fund (DAF)? Please consider donating from your DAF to HAC now! During this pandemic, HAC needs support to aid communities during these difficult times, including distribution of PPE and free outreach clinics.
