John, in a time of growing humanitarian need and shifting funding landscapes, strategic donors are finding new ways to maximize their impact.
Recent cuts to government humanitarian funding have created critical gaps in aid delivery worldwide. This makes private giving through donor-advised funds (DAFs) more important than ever.
As someone who has made meaningful contributions to our work, a DAF could be the perfect next step in your philanthropic journey, offering tax advantages and the flexibility to increase your impact when and how you choose.
What is a donor-advised fund?
A DAF is like your own charitable savings account created to support the causes you care about most. Download our DAF 101 guide to learn how this charitable savings account can maximize your impact while you contribute cash, stocks, cryptocurrency or other appreciated assets and receive an immediate tax deduction. Your contributions grow tax-free, and you recommend grants to qualified nonprofits–including the IRC–whenever you choose.
When you direct DAF grants to the International Rescue Committee, you're taking intentional action to protect and empower people who have been forced from their homes by persecution, conflict and crisis.
📆 October 9 is DAF Day—featuring 5X matching on all DAF gifts until then, making it the ideal time to start or expand your strategic giving. Look for your DAF Day postcard in the mail this month with more details about how to maximize your impact.
