Donor Advised Funds

Imagine standing in your kitchen late at night.

​

Your children are asleep.

​

You have your phone in your hand, your heart pounding, and a bag hidden somewhere with a few clothes and the things you managed to gather.

 

You know you need to leave.

​

But you look at your bank account.
 

There isn't enough for a hotel.
 

There isn't enough for groceries, gas, security deposit, diapers, or the thousand little things that suddenly become enormous when you're trying to start over.

 

So you wait.

 

You tell yourself you'll find a way.

 

And you hope tomorrow will be different.

 

This is where your generosity can change a life.

 

At Nora's Haven, we know that leaving an abusive situation is not simply a matter of finding the courage to walk away.

 

Survivors often need resources to make that decision possible.

 

A safe place to sleep.
 

A tank of gas.
 

Emergency essentials.
 

Help for their children.
 

A phone that stays connected.
 

Support when everything familiar has been taken away.

 

Your Donor Advised Fund can help provide those resources.

 

Your DAF Gift Can Be the Moment Everything Changes.

 

You can now recommend a grant to Nora's Haven directly from your Donor Advised Fund through our website.

 

With just a few clicks, you can help a survivor move from crisis toward safety and from survival toward a future they choose for themselves.

 

Your gift may be the thing that helps someone finally say:

 

I'm leaving.

 

I'm taking my children.

 

I'm choosing safety.

 

I'm choosing a different life.

 

And then actually have the resources to do it.

Why Donor Advised Funds Matter

 

A Donor Advised Fund gives you a simple, flexible way to support the causes that matter most to you.

 

Simplicity: Your DAF sponsor manages record-keeping, grant distributions, and related administration.

 

Flexibility: You can recommend grants to organizations whose missions are meaningful to you and your family.

 

Tax Efficiency: Contributions to a DAF may provide tax benefits, and investment growth within the DAF is generally tax-free. Donating appreciated assets may also provide additional tax advantages.

 

Family Legacy: A DAF can become a way to teach the next generation that generosity is not simply about giving money. It is about giving people a chance.

Help Make the Next Chapter Possible.

We cannot change what happened to a survivor.

 

We cannot give back the years that were taken.

 

We cannot erase the fear.

 

But we can help change what happens next.

 

We can help a mother put her children in the car and drive somewhere safe.

 

We can help a survivor unlock the door to a new home.

 

We can help a family have food on the table while they rebuild.

 

We can help turn “I don't know how I'm going to do this” into “I have help.”

 

That is what your generosity can mean.

 

A Survivor Should Never Have to Choose Between Staying in Danger and Being Unable to Afford to Leave.

 

Your Donor Advised Fund gift can help make living free of harm easier.

 

Recommend a grant to Nora's Haven today.

 

Because somewhere, right now, someone may be sitting quietly and wondering if they can make it out.

 

Your gift can help make sure they don't have to find their way alone.
