Donor Advised Fund (DAF) GIVING

Supporting JFCS through your Donor Advised Fund (DAF) is a meaningful way to put your dollars to work!

By making a DAF donation, funds that you have already set aside for charitable use will now make a direct impact on the lives of those we serve. Your DAF dollars can help a Holocaust Survivor age with dignity in their own home, help a family facing hard times pay their mortgage, subsidize affordable counseling for a teen struggling with mental health challenges, and so much more.

Get in the spirit of DAF giving with DAF Day on October 8, 2026! Join in this national philanthropic movement by making a one-time or recurring gift to JFCS through your DAF on October 8.
