Create Your Donor Advised Fund with Ease

Open a Donor Advised Fund (DAF) today with a gift of $5,000 or more.

Follow these simple steps:

  • 1. Open Your Fund

    Start your DAF with a gift of $5,000 or more and receive an immediate charitable gift deduction. Simplify tax time with a single tax receipt for your gift of cash, appreciated stocks, bonds, mutual funds, or real estate.

  • 2. Complete a Simple Agreement

    Fill out a straightforward fund agreement with 2Wanda Community Foundation. You'll have online access to your fund, allowing you to add to it and review its history and investment performance. We will provide quarterly statements summarizing your fund's activity.

  • 3. Invest and Grow

    Your fund will be invested and can grow tax-free, either as part of our general endowment fund or a socially responsible endowment fund. For funds over $500,000, you can recommend your preferred investment manager. Annual administrative and investment fees are typically 1.38-1.68% of the fund value.

  • 4. Enjoy Your Philanthropy

    We handle all the details, issuing grants or scholarships in the name of your fund. If you prefer, your giving can remain anonymous.

Contributions to our Donor-Advised Funds are irrevocable and will be managed with 2WCF’s discretion to ensure meaningful impact. While donors may recommend grants to charitable organizations aligned with our mission, all final decisions rest with us. Funds are dedicated to initiatives that drive social impact and foster community development.
