Donor Advised Funds (DAFs)

Donor Advised Funds (DAFs) are an excellent way to simplify your charitable giving while providing valuable tax advantages.

A DAF, which is like a charitable savings account, gives you the flexibility to recommend how much and how often money is granted to BLT and other qualified charities. You can recommend a grant or recurring grants now to make and immediate impact or use your fund as a tool for future charitable gifts.

Making a gift to BLT through your Donor Advised Fund is simple.

You may recommend a grant by contacting your financial institution or fund manager and letting them know how much you would like to donate. The grant will arrive directly to BLT. Here are the details to provide for your fund manager:

  • Barnstable Land Trust, 1540 Main Street, W. Barnstable, MA 02668

  • Contact: Kelsey Ellis, 508-771-2585 x 103

Please make a request for your name and address to be included with your distribution, so that you can be properly recognized for your generosity. We also recommend that you contact the BLT Develoment Team at Kelsey Ellis or 508-771-2585 x103 to inform us of your intended grant.
