Use Your Donor-Advised Fund
A donor-advised fund (DAF) is a charitable giving account that allows you to recommend grants to charitable organizations, like the Seena Magowitz Foundation. If you have a DAF, you can easily direct funds to our foundation and support our initiatives. This method of giving offers flexibility and can be an effective way to manage your charitable contributions over time. Consult with your financial advisor.

This type of gift can significantly benefit both you and the foundation. Consult your tax professional or financial advisor to learn how.
