Give Through a Donor-Advised Fund

Support Orange County families through a simple, tax-efficient giving method. Donor-advised funds (DAFs) allow you to recommend grants to Family Support Network and help sustain programs that provide guidance, resources, and community support.

HOW DAF GIVING WORKS

A Simple Way to Support Local Families

A donor-advised fund is a charitable giving account managed by a sponsoring organization, such as a community foundation or financial institution. Donors contribute to the fund and then recommend grants to nonprofits over time. If you already have a donor-advised fund, you can recommend a grant to Family Support Network in just a few steps through your provider. This allows you to support programs serving Orange County families while using a structured, flexible giving approach.

Unlike a standard online donation, DAF gifts are processed through your sponsoring organization—not directly through a website form—making it important to use the correct nonprofit details when submitting your recommendation.
