Sample Letter to a Donor


Dear Donor,

We have the opportunity for donations to have an even bigger impact through the #HalfMyDAF movement.

Over $234 billion sits in Donor Advised Funds across the country. The goal of #HalfMyDAF is to move that money to nonprofits like ours by randomly giving away unrestricted matching grants. If you are a DAF holder and commit to spending down half of the money that was in your DAF on January 1st by September 27, 2024, all the grants you make to us or other nonprofits are eligible for a match from #HalfMyDAF.

#HalfMyDAF will make dollar-for-dollar matches of up to $5,000 on June 28, 2024 and again on September 27, 2024, out of a pool of $1.8M in unrestricted grant funding.

Since starting in 2020, the #HalfMyDAF community has awarded over $50 million in grants. The more donors who commit to spending down at least half of their DAF and give to us, the more likely we are to receive a match.

Thank you for your support and please spread the word.
