Make a Lasting Impact with Donor-Advised Funds

Support Heart to Heart International’s mission with a simple, tax-efficient giving option.

Heart to Heart International Is Qualified to Receive DAF Grants

As a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization, Heart to Heart International is fully eligible to receive donor-advised fund grants. Your gift will help deliver critical healthcare, disaster relief, and humanitarian aid where it’s needed most.

What Is A Donor-Advised Fund?

Donor-advised fund (DAFs) is a special charitable giving account that makes philanthropy simple, flexible, and tax-efficient. You set money aside in your DAF, receive an immediate tax deduction (if eligible), and then recommend grants from the fund to charities you care about, like Heart to Heart International, over time.

How it works:

  • You make a charitable contribution to your DAF and may qualify for a same-year tax deduction.

  • Your contribution grows tax-free in the account, giving you more to grant to nonprofits later.

  • You decide when and how much to grant from your fund, while the sponsoring organization (such as Fidelity Charitable, Schwab Charitable, or a community foundation) handles the administrative details.

This means you can separate the tax decision from the giving decision, contribute now, and over time, you can recommend grants from your fund to nonprofits like Heart to Heart International.
