GIVE THROUGH YOUR
DONOR-ADVISED FUND
MULTIPLY THE IMPACT OF YOUR GIFT
A Donor-Advised Fund (DAF) is one of the most convenient and tax-efficient ways to support OSSO. If you have a DAF account with Fidelity Charitable, Vanguard, Wells Fargo Bank, Charles Schwab, JPMorgan Chase, or another provider, you can recommend a grant to OSSO and help us serve orphaned and vulnerable children in Latin America.

A smarter, more impactful way to support OSSO
A SMARTER WAY TO DONATE
DEPOST
Make a meaningful, tax-smart contribution
Open a Donor-Advised Fund and contribute cash, stocks, or even non-traditional assets like cryptocurrency or business shares. You’ll receive an immediate tax deduction—whether you give today or plan to support OSSO and other charities over time.
DEVELOP
Let your generosity grow, tax-free
While you consider where to give, your donation can be invested and grow tax-free—creating even more resources to support children in need through OSSO’s programs in Ecuador.
DONATE
Support the causes you love, on your timeline
You decide when and how to recommend grants. Whether it’s a one-time gift or part of your long-term giving strategy, your DAF can help provide consistent care, therapy, and love to vulnerable children. Give at your own pace—knowing every gift makes a lasting difference.
Why Give Through a DAF?
Giving to OSSO through your Donor-Advised Fund lets you turn your values into lasting impact. It’s a way to share the love, safety, and care you once received with children who need it most, children facing abandonment and hardship.
DAF gifts help OSSO respond the moment needs arise. Whether it’s a child arriving with nothing or a sudden medical emergency, your support gives us the flexibility to act quickly and compassionately.
For many, OSSO is personal. It’s a child they met, a life-changing volunteer trip, or a cause close to their heart. A DAF gift keeps that connection alive by building a legacy of love, second chances, and lasting change.

How a DAF can help you give to OSSO
Immediate tax deduction
You can claim the charitable tax deduction in the year you fund your DAF.
Tax-free growth inside the DAF
Funds in the DAF can be invested and grow tax‑free before being granted.
Estate planning advantages
DAFs help remove assets from your estate, reduce estate tax exposure and allow successor advisors or charitable beneficiaries.
Avoid capital gains tax on appreciated assets
Donating appreciated securities to a DAF lets you deduct full market value and bypass capital gains tax.
Bunching contributions / timing flexibility
You can contribute in a high‑income year, take the deduction then, and recommend grants over time.
Simplified recordkeeping
Using one DAF account means fewer tax receipts and less administrative hassle than dealing with multiple gifts.
