If you decide to make The Princess Margaret Cancer Foundation a beneficiary of your DAF, would you let us know? We would like to recognize you for your generosity and ensure that your gift is used as you intend.
Please don’t hesitate to get in touch if you have any questions or if you need more information about building your legacy with The Princess Margaret.
I invite you to contact me so we can chat about easy ways to make an impact using your donor-advised fund.
6 ways you can make an impact with your donor-advised fund
Memorialize, honor, or commemorate a loved one or an event.
Avoid capital gains by first transferring appreciated stock to your DAF and then gifting it in minutes.
Teach your loved ones about charity and why you believe in giving back.
Build a sense of community (and make a bigger impact) by forming “giving circles” with other donor-advised fund owners including friends and family members.
Bundle your charitable gifts (doing so could result in an opportunity to itemize your deductions in the same year).
Leave all or a portion of your the account to charity simply by changing your beneficiary designation.
We hope you will consider naming The Princess Margaret Cancer Foundation as a beneficiary of your account. You may even designate The PMCF to receive a portion of the account value, leaving the remaining portion for your children or grandchildren to continue your legacy of philanthropy.
