Donor Advised Funds

A Donor-Advised Fund (DAF) is like a charitable savings account that makes it easy for you to give to causes you care about. With a DAF, you can recommend how much and how often money is given to High Point Village or other qualified charities. The DAF allows you to make an immediate impact or plan for future charitable gifts.

How it works:

• Jimmy and Laura want to give back to their community. They set up a $25,000 DAF with a community foundation or an organization like Thrivent. They get a federal income tax deduction for their donation.
• Jimmy and Laura want to support High Point Village. They recommend a grant to High Point, and the foundation or Thrivent sends the check on their behalf.

Ways to fund your DAF:

• Cash
• Appreciated Securities
• Retirement plan assets
• Tangible personal property
