Donor-advised funds (DAFs) are the fastest-growing source of charitable giving in the U.S., and they are reshaping how donors plan their philanthropy. If you’re a planned giving fundraiser, you can’t afford to overlook this powerful tool.
Celebrate DAF Day this October 9th by joining us for our FREE webinar hosted by Foundation Source.
Gary Pforzheimer, President of Planned Giving will be co-presenting with Stephen Kump, President of Donor Advised Funds at Foundation Source, and Mitch Stein, Head of Strategy at Chariot, a financial technology company focused on DAF payments and donor-advised fund innovation, and incidentally, one of the founders of DAF Day.
Key topics we’ll cover in this webinar include:
- Understanding the DAF landscape: Current trends, emerging opportunities, and what motivates today’s DAF donors
- Building effective DAF fundraising strategies for nonprofits: Best practices for cultivation, stewardship, and conversion
- Leveraging technology and modern solutions: How to enhance your donor’s experience and even launch your own DAF program through the Foundation Source turnkey, white labeled DAF solution
- Planned giving integration: Connecting DAFs with comprehensive philanthropic planning for maximum impact
