$30 million in value.

Since its launch, Daffy, the Donor-Advised Fund for You™, has
offered members an industry-leading set of portfolio options
including fifteen different portfolios such as Conservative,
Standard, ESG, and Crypto. Recognizing that tax-free investment
growth is a significant benefit of donor-advised funds (DAFs),
Daffy members have been seeking more options to enhance their
giving potential. With the introduction of Custom Portfolios, Daffy
will now support portfolios featuring over 460 low-cost,
high-quality ETFs from top-quality providers like Vanguard,
Blackrock iShares, Fidelity, Schwab, State Street, Van Eck,
Bitwise, and State Street SPDR. Daffy will also be the first DAF to
support both Bitcoin ETFs and Ethereum ETFs in their investment
options.
Daffy has built its own portfolio tool to make the process
simple and helpful for members, allowing them to start with
pre-approved portfolio templates and then modify the investments
and percentages to better match their giving goals. Members can
propose a portfolio of up to 10 ETFs, resulting in over 100
quintillion possible combinations to tailor their fund’s investment
strategy to their specific giving needs.
“A big benefit of a DAF is growing your charitable dollars
tax-free, but selecting the appropriate investments for a
charitable fund is not trivial. Daffy members want to align their
investment strategy with their investment theses, personal beliefs,
and giving timeline,” said Adam Nash, Co-founder and CEO of Daffy.
“By offering over 100 quintillion options to grow the money set
aside for charity through investments in ETFs they believe in, we
aim to fulfill our mission by unlocking even more money for
charitable giving.”
Daffy is dedicated to helping people make giving a habit by
setting up recurring, tax-free contributions and donations with
cash, debit, credit, Apple Pay, stock, and over 200 crypto assets.
As the first full-featured donor-advised fund mobile app, Daffy has
previously launched innovative features such as Daffy for Advisors,
Daffy APIs, Daffy Campaigns, Daffy for Families, and Daffy for
Work. Since its initial launch in September 2021, the Daffy
community has grown to thousands, with members’ account sizes
ranging from $100 to over $10M.
