Can I use a DAF to sponsor charitable events?

In keeping with the IRS regulations, DAF donors may only make grants to sponsor charitable events if the sponsorship is fully tax deductible, or the donor waives all nonincidental benefits. Logo or name recognition is considered an incidental benefit.

  • For example, a DAF donor is considering sponsoring a fundraising gala. Sponsorship includes a dinner table for 10 at the gala for the donor and guests of his/her choosing. If the donor wishes to attend the gala and fill the table, he/she should not pay for the sponsorship with his/her DAF.
  • Another example, a DAF donor is considering sponsoring a charity golf tournament. Sponsorship includes a round of golf, a golf shirt, golf balls, and name recognition on an event banner. The donor does not want to play in the tournament and is willing to forego the golf shirt and golf balls. In this case, the DAF donor could use his/her DAF to pay for this sponsorship.
