Gifts through a Donor-Advised Fund
A donor-advised fund, or DAF, is like a charitable investment account for the sole purpose of supporting charitable organizations you care about, like Legal Aid.
When you contribute cash, securities, or other assets to a donor-advised fund, you are generally eligible to take an immediate tax deduction. Then those funds can be invested for tax-free growth, and you can directly recommend grants to Legal Aid, or other eligible IRS-qualified public charities.
Fai se DAF meaalofa i Legal Aid mai lau tupe!

- In 2024, Case Western Reserve University’s Phi Alpha Delta chapter held their 6th Annual Law Gala to benefit Legal Aid. This networking event gives students a chance to mingle with each other and a wide range of local professionals and has become a staple of the annual calendar.
There are so many more ways to support Legal Aid with a creative fundraiser that brings people together and raises awareness of our work. It can be as simple as a Facebook Birthday Fundraiser or social media post, or a more formal gala dinner or music festival.
