Helpful Tips
Good to know
A grant from your fund cannot be used to pay for something that brings you a personal benefit, such as a gala ticket or event table. A straightforward gift to support our mission is always welcome.
Gifts from an IRA (qualified charitable distributions) cannot be directed to a donor advised fund, so the two are handled separately.
