Donor Advised Funds: Changing How Donors Give

  • Tuesday, May 07, 2019
  • 10:30 AM - 1:30 PM
  • Jefferson Lakeside Country Club
  • 0

Registration

  • A special offer for participants in IOP programs to join VAFRE for a complimentary meeting.
  • For those individuals who are members of VAFRE.
  • For individuals who are not personally members of VAFRE but whose organization has one or more paid members.
  • For individuals who are not members of VAFRE and whose organizations do not have another member.
  • For members who have purchased their season pass only.

With the federal tax reform enacted in 2017 increasing filers’ standard deduction, a primary incentive for individuals to make charitable contributions has been eliminated.  One method taxpayers are increasingly adopting to circumvent those reduced deductions is creating donor advised funds.  What does this mean for nonprofit organizations?  How can we as fund raisers position our organizations to maximize contributions from these funds?  Join VAFRE and our panel of presenters for these and other answers at our May 7th meeting.

Approved for 2 hours of CFRE credit.
