DONOR ADVISED FUNDS

A donor advised fund (DAF) gives you the opportunity to support the Wilmington Symphony Orchestra while also receiving tax benefits on your donation. Think of it as a charitable savings account—you put money in the DAF, any potential growth is tax-free, and then you can recommend where your assets go in the form of grants.

How Does It Work?

  1. Establish your DAF by making an irrevocable, tax-deductible donation to a public charity that sponsors a DAF program. 

  2. Advise the investment allocation of the donated assets (any investment growth is tax-free).

  3. Recommend grants to qualified public charities of your choice.   If your DAF is not listed below, contact your DAF host directly to recommend a grant to the Wilmington Symphony Orchestra.
