Donor-Advised Funds

Donor-Advised Funds (DAF) are a tax-efficient way to manage charitable donations

Donor-Advised Funds allow donors to make a charitable contribution, receive an immediate tax deduction, and then recommend grants from the fund over time. 

Grants made to Books, Brushes & Bands for Education (BBB4E) through Donor-Advised Funds can be designated in one of two ways:

  • for BBB4E to use wherever the need is greatest

  • for BBB4E to use for a specific program that matches the donors' interests, such as the Midwest Youth Choir, Midwest Youth Band, Midwest Youth Orchestra, or Book Brigade: A Call to Action.

Books, Brushes & Bands for Education’s tax I.D. number is 35-2122525.
