Join Us for DAF Day
On October 9, 2025, nonprofits across the country will participate in DAF Day 2025. DAF Day is a moment to highlight the huge impact that donor-advised funds can make. If you have a DAF or have been considering starting one, this is the perfect time to get involved and recommend a grant to Friends of PACC!
DAFs are one of the simplest and most effective ways to give. They allow you to set aside charitable dollars in advance, receive immediate tax benefits, and then support the causes you care about most on your own timeline.
Your support helps us provide lifesaving care and brighter futures for pets in our community.
Donor-Advised Fund (DAF)
Have a Donor-Advised Fund? When you give through your Donor-Advised Fund (DAF), you can recommend a grant to Friends of PACC. It’s an easy way to turn charitable dollars you’ve already set aside into lifesaving care for pets.
What Is a Donor-Advised Fund?
A Donor-Advised Fund (DAF) is like a charitable savings account. You put money into it, receive a tax deduction, and then recommend grants to nonprofits you care about, like Friends of PACC.
When you give through your DAF, you can make an immediate difference for pets in need while putting your charitable dollars to work in the way you intended.
Why Donor-Advised Funds make sense
DAFs are one of the fastest-growing ways people support the causes they love. You get an immediate tax deduction, your giving can grow tax-free, and you can recommend grants on your own timeline. That means you can act quickly for urgent needs and also plan steady support through the year.
DAFs also simplify life. One account. Clear records. Fewer steps every time you give. When you use your DAF for Friends of PACC, those dollars turn into medical care, shelter support, and second chances for pets in our community.
“I have had a DAF for a number of years, which has allowed me to fund it with appreciated stock at fair market value. It is so easy, and I now have a charitable investment fund that lets me give to Friends of PACC regularly or whenever special needs arise. It’s a win–win for me and Friends of PACC!”
— Denise C., donor, Friends of PACC
