🎙️ "Our focus is on transformation. A hundred percent of the people we serve have an addiction to drugs and alcohol. We work from the inside out to address the root cause, which for an addict is shame. Unless we deal with that root cause, nothing good is going to happen." - Tony Marciano.

What Are Donor-Advised Funds (DAFs)? DAFs let donors contribute assets, receive immediate tax benefits, and decide later which nonprofits to support. But here’s the issue: over $180 billion is parked in these accounts, unused. In 2023, $90 billion was added to DAFs, but less than $60 billion was distributed. While donors gain tax advantages, nonprofits miss out on critical funding when these resources stay inactive. 💬 How can fundraisers encourage DAF donors to give more actively?
