What is a donor-advised fund (DAF)?

A donor-advised fund (DAF) is a simple, flexible and tax-advantageous way to make a charitable donation. DAF’s allow donors to make a charitable contribution, receive an immediate tax deduction and then recommend grants from the fund over time.

The Neema Project gratefully accepts grants from DAFs in support of our mission to restore the hearts, educate the minds and transform the lives of vulnerable young women in rural Kenya. We partner with some of the largest DAF sponsor organizations and their philanthropic service teams in the United States.

Clients of BNY Mellon, Fidelity Charitable and Schwab Charitable can make a designation to Neema through the DAF Direct window on this page.

Neema's tax I.D. number: 37-1751940
