DONATE WITH DAF
Support Literacy NJ with a Donor-Advised Fund
What’s a DAF?
A Donor-Advised Fund (DAF) is a simple way to manage your charitable giving. When you put money into your DAF, you receive an immediate tax deduction. Then you can direct donations toward the nonprofits you support now or in the future.
How Does it Work?
You can now give from your Donor Advised Fund (DAF) directly on our website in just 3 clicks. Simply click on the “Donate with my DAF” button then choose the amount. Select Donor Advised Fund/DAF Pay as payment method, complete your contact details, and choose DAF Pay to find your fund. This is the fastest and easiest way to give from hundreds of DAF providers, including:
- Fidelity Charitable
- Vanguard Charitable
- BNY Mellon
- Merrill Lynch
- National Philanthropic Trust
- Daffy
Your donation ensures that all adults have the opportunity to read, write, and communicate effectively. Literacy unlocks opportunities like a better job, a high school diploma, and citizenship. With DAFpay, it’s easy to make a life-changing impact on the life of an adult learner.
