Did you know that Donor Advised Funds (DAFs) are one of the most underutilized tools in Canada's financial landscape? Surprisingly, many financial advisors are still unaware of their potential. Let's change that! What are DAFs? They're a fantastic way to strategically manage your assets while making a difference. By setting up a DAF, you can contribute funds, receive an immediate tax deduction, and then recommend grants to your favorite charities over time. Why are they beneficial for asset management? DAFs offer flexibility, tax advantages, and simplified giving processes. Plus, they allow you to maintain control over your charitable contributions while potentially growing your assets over time. **Financial advisors**: it's time to add DAFs to your toolkit! They provide unique opportunities for your clients to align their financial goals with their philanthropic values. Let's empower our clients to make a meaningful impact while optimizing their financial strategies. If you have any questions, or if you'd like to set up a presentation about My Charity Fund (www.mycharityfund.ca) and what we can offer you and your clients in terms of quickly setting up a DAF, let me know ASAP!! #DonorAdvisedFunds #AssetManagement #Philanthropy #FinancialPlanning #CanadaFinance

A donor-advised fund (DAF) is an investment account used for charitable giving. You get an immediate tax benefit for your contributions, you can leave the money in the fund to be invested for growth potential, and you get to direct grants to qualified charities at your discretion. DAFs can be easier and less expensive to create and administer than a foundation, can be more flexible than direct contributions to charities, and can provide more tax benefits than either. Contact our office to learn more about incorporating a DAF into your financial plan. #charitablegiving #DAFs #wealthmanagement #financialplanning
