DONOR ADVISED FUNDS: THE COMMUNITY FOUNDATION OFFERS DONOR ADVISED FUNDS (DAFS) TO DONORS IN THE REGION. A DAF IS A TYPE OF CHARITABLE GIVING FUND THAT IS ESTABLISHED BY A DONOR TO SUPPORT A CAUSE OR CAUSES THAT THE DONOR CARES ABOUT. DAFS ALLOW DONORS TO REMAIN INVOLVED IN ACTIVE CHARITABLE GIVING BY RETAINING "ADVISORY PRIVILEGES" TO RECOMMEND HOW THE COMMUNITY FOUNDATION SHOULD MAKE GRANTS FROM THAT FUND. FOR THE YEAR ENDING JUNE 30, 2023, THE COMMUNITY FOUNDATION HELD 155 SEPARATE DONOR ADVISED FUNDS THAT AWARDED $4,749,969 IN TOTAL GRANTS.


THE COMMUNITY FOUNDATION CURRENTLY HOSTS TWO GIVING CIRCLES: THE LOUDOUN IMPACT FUND, A GIVING CIRCLE FOR LOUDOUN DONORS SUPPORTING LOUDOUN BASED CAUSES, AND THE BUSINESS WOMEN'S GIVING CIRCLE, A GIVING CIRCLE FOR LOCAL WOMEN WHO SUPPORT ORGANIZATIONS PREPARING GIRLS AND WOMEN FOR CAREER AND FINANCIAL SUCCESS.
