Thinking Ahead: DAFs and Legacy Giving

When you open a DAF, it’s natural to focus first on how you’ll use it during your lifetime. But what happens to the balance after you’re no longer able to advise it? Many DAF accounts become “orphaned.” Without an advisor, sponsoring institutions may decide how leftover funds are dispersed.By naming a beneficiary or successor, you ensure your DAF continues to support the causes and communities you care about. Please consider designating The Ebell as your beneficiary.
