Support IGFA Through Your Donor-Advised Fund
Do you have a Donor-Advised Fund (DAF)? As a qualified 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization, the IGFA is eligible to receive grants from your DAF. Supporting our mission through your Donor Advised Fund is as straightforward as recommending a grant through your fund administrator – whether that's Fidelity Charitable, Schwab Charitable, National Philanthropic Trust, or your local community foundation.
Your DAF grant to the IGFA advances vital work in game fish conservation, angling education, and recognition of outstanding achievements in our sport. Like choosing the right moment to cast your line, you can time your support to align with your charitable giving strategy while making a meaningful impact on the future of sport fishing.
DAF grants offer several advantages:
- Flexibility to recommend grants of any size that fit your giving strategy
- Simplicity of recommending grants online through your fund administrator
- Ability to establish recurring support
- Option to name IGFA as a beneficiary of your fund for lasting impact
- Freedom to support specific IGFA programs that match your interests
- Choice to give anonymously if you prefer
Whether you recommend a single grant or establish recurring support, your DAF can help ensure that future generations will enjoy the thrill of sport fishing while learning the importance of conservation and ethical angling practices. Like selecting the right gear for different fishing conditions, you can direct your DAF support to the IGFA programs that matter most to you.
Beyond recommending current grants, you can create a lasting legacy by naming IGFA as a beneficiary of your DAF. This simple yet powerful option ensures your support for game fish conservation and education continues beyond your lifetime, much like passing down cherished fishing traditions to future generations.
To recommend a grant, you'll need our tax ID number and mailing address – information we're happy to provide. Whether you're a seasoned DAF user or just getting started with your fund, our team is here to help you make the most of your charitable giving.
