Using a Donor Advised Fund (DAF) is a relatively cost-effective way for donors to reap maximum tax benefits while supporting the causes they care about. Often, DAFs can be set up with as little as $1,000 or $5,000 and grants can be as small as $50. In addition, DAF holders can take a federal income tax deduction up to 50% of adjusted gross income for appreciated securities. Further, by transferring assets such as real estate or limited partnership interests to a DAF, donors can avoid capital gains taxes and receive an immediate, fair-market-value tax deduction. Please consult your financial advisor to clarify the advantages of using a DAF and email Kristie to let AWTT know of your gift.

When using a DAF to make a gift, you will need the following information:

AWTT Address: 46 Bridge Road Brooksville ME 04617

EIN: 56-2672793 501(C)(3)
