Donor-Advised Funds

Simplify achieving your philanthropic goals with a donor-advised fund.

As you chart your philanthropic goals, consider streamlining your contributions through a donor-advised fund (DAF). While not directly managed by the PBS Foundation, DAFs are easy to establish at many financial institutions or community foundations, which will then make grants to your recommended nonprofits on your behalf.

In addition to ease of use, DAFs offer added flexibility around the timing of your gifts and favorable tax benefits. Gifts to a DAF are generally eligible for immediate tax deduction, and DAFs grow tax-free — allowing you to grow your impact.

How to Make Your Gift

Many of our donors enjoy sending their gifts electronically through their online portal. Here’s the information you will need should you decide to give electronically or by mail.
