The growth of Donor Advised Funds

by Brian Elmore


I wrote a blog post last year entitled Donor-Advised Funds 101, which goes over the concept of DAF and how donors use these funds to make gifts to non-profit organizations.


This post will take a look at how these funds have grown over the past year. They are becoming an increasingly popular giving vehicle, and their growth shows no signs of stopping.


The figures used in this post are from the National Philanthropic Trust’s 2018 DAF Report unless otherwise cited.


More Funds. More Cash.
