Donor-Advised Funds

A Smart Way to Give

Make Your DAF Gift to Green Foothills

If you have a donor-advised fund (DAF), you can recommend a grant to support Green Foothills and help protect the open spaces, clean water, and wildlife habitat that define our region.

Green Foothills EIN (Tax ID): 94-612185

You can recommend a gift through your DAF provider, such as Fidelity Charitable, DAFgiving360 (formerly Schwab Charitable), or Silicon Valley Community Foundation. If you have a DAF with one of these entities, you can use the link above to initiate your donation recommendation. If your DAF is held elsewhere, simply include our EIN when making your recommendation.

What is a Donor-Advised Fund?

A donor-advised fund (DAF) is a charitable giving account that allows you to make a contribution, receive an immediate tax deduction, and recommend grants to nonprofits over time, like Green Foothills. Contributions can include cash, stock, or other assets to the DAF and funds may grow tax-free before being distributed to the organizations you support.

Note: Donor Advised Fund grants cannot include any exchange of goods or services. For example, you can sponsor our annual fundraiser Nature’s Inspiration with a DAF, but if you want to attend you need to pay for your tickets separately via another method.
