A donor advised fund allows you to make charitable donations to nonprofits and receive an immediate tax deduction. You then recommend grants from the fund over time. Administered by a third party, a fund can accept cash, publicly traded stocks and bonds, and other appreciated assets. You can recommend how much and how often money is granted to qualified charities. You also can create a lasting legacy by naming Catholic Charities the beneficiary of the entire account or a percentage of the fund.
