Donate with your donor-advised fund

Effortlessly recommend grants to SOS Children’s Villages for tax-smart giving. 

 

Maximize your giving with your Donor-Advised Fund 

Donor-advised funds (DAFs) allow individuals to make a charitable contribution to their account, receive an immediate tax deduction and then recommend grants over time to charities of their choice.  

Giving through a DAF equips donors to give smarter—providing a flexible, tax-efficient way to make a lasting difference for children without a safe home. 

To contribute from your donor-advised fund with a few, simple clicks, use the button below

Benefits

  • Avoid capital-gains taxes when contributing appreciated assets (i.e. stocks, bonds, cryptocurrency, even real estate) to your DAF.  

  • Enjoy the flexibility to choose how you help children in need now—and in the future. 

How to help children growing up alone with your DAF gift:  

1. Donate directly through your DAF provider through the button above.  

OR 

2. Contact your DAF provider (i.e. Fidelity Charitable, Schwab Charitable, Vanguard, etc.) and direct them to make a gift using SOS Children’s Villages Federal EIN: 13-6188433.
