Make a Gift through your Donor Advised Fund
Recommend a grant to the BPLF instantly using DAFpay!
The charitable gift fund or donor-advised fund (DAF) is becoming an increasingly popular way to make a charitable gift. DAFs can provide you with immediate tax benefits while making your charitable giving easier. Here are two simple ways you can make a gift through your DAF:
- Make an outright gift by suggesting a grant to the Boston Public Library Fund.
- Just as you can name beneficiaries for retirement accounts or life insurance policies, you can designate the Boston Public Library Fund to receive all or a percentage of your Donor Advised Fund upon your passing.
You can select the option that best suits your philanthropic and financial goals to support the Boston Public Library Fund. Just contact your fund administrator to request a distribution or beneficiary form or download the appropriate form(s) from your administrator’s website.
