Donor Advised Funds
A Donor Advised Fund (DAF) is a simple, flexible, and tax-efficient way to support the causes that matter most to you. A DAF works like a charitable investment account: you contribute assets, receive an immediate tax deduction, and then recommend grants to organizations like the Indigenous Friends Association (IFA) over time. For more in-depth information about DAFs please click here.
Supporting the IFA through your DAF is a simple and meaningful way to create lasting impact and provide long-term stability to our programming. Your support helps us continue building digital pathways grounded in Indigenous knowledge and culture, creating opportunities in education, employment, and community connection. You are strengthening programs like IndigiTAL and IndigiTECH, ensuring they remain available to Indigenous communities across Canada for years to come.
Why Give Through a DAF?
Flexible Giving: You decide when and how much to give.
Tax Benefits: Contributions are tax-deductible, and investments in the fund can grow tax-free.
Lasting Impact: You can recommend grants to IFA now or create a plan for ongoing support in the future.
Ready to make a difference? Talk to your DAF provider today! Common DAF sponsors include Gift Funds Canada, Charitable Impact, Canada Gives, and CAF America though grants can be made through most financial institutions or public foundations. You can ask your bank about DAF options as well.
