The DAF Revolution: Making a Difference in Our Modern World helps people make better, more effective decisions about charitable capital, resources already committed to the public good but often underutilized. As the first comprehensive book focused on donor-advised funds (DAFs), the fastest-growing vehicle for philanthropic support of nonprofit organizations, it provides practical guidance that directly influences financial planning, charitable strategy, and social impact.
This book helps donors and advisors use DAFs to improve tax efficiency, integrate philanthropy into estate and legacy planning, and align giving with personal values. It helps nonprofits understand how to engage DAF donors sustainably and responsibly. It also provides frameworks for vetted global giving, impact-oriented investing, and the use of emerging technologies to increase transparency and access. This book defines success as better stewardship, smarter planning, and greater societal impact.
