The impact of unrestricted granting

Vanguard Charitable strives to provide top philanthropic guidance. One piece of advice often shared is to give unrestricted grants when possible. Unrestricted granting means that when donors recommend a grant, the funds can be used however the nonprofit deems best.

 

Unrestricted granting is a top request from nonprofits and is an important part of trust-based philanthropy. For those looking for effective giving tips, this is a top recommendation.

Key Takeaways

People may open donor-advised funds for many reasons. They may be seeking to maximize generosity through tax benefits or to find a more cost-effective alternative to private foundations. They may also want to use tax-free growth of philanthropic investments to give even more over time.

 

No matter the reason for opening, people begin their DAF philanthropic journey with a meaningful commitment to strategic philanthropy. Why Giving Matters observes that a donor-advised fund can have a profound impact for the better on donor behavior over time. The longer a donor has a Vanguard Charitable donor-advised fund, the more generously and more effectively they give to charity.

 

The DAF report considered various factors that constitute effective giving beyond just giving more. The study not only reviewed the observable giving behavior but also how donors themselves view their giving.
