A Flexible, Tax-Smart Way to Give to KON: Donor-Advised Fund (DAF)

A Donor-Advised Fund (DAF) is a simple and efficient charitable giving account that allows you to contribute, grow, and recommend grants to your favorite nonprofit organizations all in one place. With a DAF, you can make a tax-deductible donation now and choose later which charities to support, providing flexibility for both strategic and spontaneous giving. You can set up an over-time distribution from the fund to benefit KON over a longer period of time.
