You can now support the ministries you care about by giving through a donor advised fund (DAF) created specifically for Seventh-day Adventist organizations in the U.S. Using a DAF allows you to make a gift of cash, stocks, or other assets and receive an immediate tax deduction, while enabling you to give to multiple charities and choose the timeframe for distributions. You can also name your children or others as co-advisors of the fund to teach them about philanthropy and pass on your values. In addition, using a DAF allows you to give anonymously if you choose. For more information about how you can support your local church, Maplewood Academy, North Star Camp, Evangelism, and other favorite ministries using the Adventist Donor Gift Fund, contact the Gift Planning and Trust Services Department (763-424-8923 or msims@mnsda.com)
