Donate through a Donor Advised Fund (DAF)
A Donor Advised Fund (DAF) is a giving fund administered by a third party that allows you to combine favorable tax benefits with the flexibility to easily support Mission Quest. It is designed to manage your charitable donations efficiently.
​
Benefits of a DAF
An increasingly popular charitable vehicle, DAFs simplify your charitable giving. DAFs allow you to give cash, stock, and other assets, receiving a tax deduction when the contribution is made. You can then use the fund to grant specific amounts to Mission Quest over time.
How It Works:
-
Establish Your Donor Advised Fund: Make an irrevocable, tax-deductible donation to an organization that sponsors a DAF program, such as Fidelity Charitable, National Philanthropic Trust, or your local community foundation.
-
Determine Investment Allocation: Decide the investment allocation of the donated assets (any investment growth is tax-free).
-
Recommend Grants: Suggest grants to Mission Quest whenever you wish to make a gift. We recommend entering Mission Quest’s full legal name or employer identification number (EIN) 47-4865647 when searching a DAF charity database.

What Can My Donor Advised Fund Do for Mission Quest?​
DAFs provide a flexible, low-cost method of supporting our worldwide mission work. These gifts are crucial for the lasting change we make in the lives of vulnerable people as we empower them to fulfill their calling.
You may also name Mission Quest as the beneficiary of the fund during your estate and legacy planning.
