Give through Your Donor Advised Fund
Get more tax breaks for your generosity.
A donor advised fund (DAF) is a charitable giving program that allows you to combine the most favorable tax benefits with the flexibility to support your favorite causes. You can establish a DAF at your local community foundation, or at a brokerage such as Schwab, BNY Mellon, or Vanguard. You can then make a contribution to Cooperative for Education from your DAF.
