Donor Advised Funds (DAF) are for individuals at every stage of their charitable giving journey—whether you’re just getting started in philanthropy, looking to expand your giving, or creating a legacy gift. Through a donor advised fund you can make a charitable contribution today, receive an immediate tax deduction, and then recommend grants from a fund over time.
In Canada, DAFs are held by public foundations, which are registered charities. Each foundation has a different mission, policies and expertise. We recommend speaking to your financial advisor about which donor-advised fund might be right for you. Once you have set up your DAF, let us know so we can thank you for your generosity.
The final distribution of contributions remaining in your DAF after your lifetime can be designated when you create or update your fund. We would like to recognize you for your generosity and ensure that your gift is used as you intend, so please inform us should you update or change your end-of-life gift to include CF Canada.
We’d love to hear from you. Please connect with us at legacygiving@cysticfibrosis.ca to discuss how we can help you fulfill your legacy.
We extend our heartfelt thanks to donors in Cystic Fibrosis Canada’s Leadership Giving Circle—individual philanthropists and charitable foundations whose exceptional generosity and vision have been instrumental in driving our work forward. These dedicated supporters lead with compassion and a deep belief in the power of positive change for the cystic fibrosis community. Their significant contributions go far beyond financial support; they are partners in our mission, offering insight, vital resources, and unwavering encouragement. Through their leadership, we are empowered to go further in advancing treatment and care, and dream bigger for our community. Their impact is profound, and we are honored to recognize their enduring commitment to making a difference.
