Did you know that you can benefit from a DAF account even while you maintain and operate a private foundation? By contributing funds from your private foundation to your DAF account and distributing your charitable donations from there – you no longer need to worry about tracking charity donation receipts or confirming eligibility of charities you’re donating to. Your DAF will automatically track all your donations into one tax deductible receipt, and give you immediate access to the 1.5 mm preapproved US charities. You’ll also have the ability to make your charity donations anonymously. You can benefit from all that, while maintaining your private foundation. And with no startup costs associated with opening a DAF account – there's really nothing to lose. #finance #DAF #Privatefoundation #philanthropy #taxdeductions
