Donor-Advised Funds

Donor-Advised Funds are one of the fastest-growing ways people are giving today. If you have a DAF through Fidelity Charitable, Schwab Charitable, Vanguard, or any other provider, you can easily recommend a grant to Sonoma Ecology Center and put your philanthropic dollars to work right here in Sonoma Valley. Giving through a DAF is flexible, simple, and can often be done online in just a few clicks. It’s also tax-efficient: many donors use DAFs to maximize their giving in high-income years while continuing to support the causes they love year after year.
