A donor-advised fund (DAF), is a charitable savings account that gives you the flexibility to recommend grants to CVOEO and other qualified charities. As a 501(c)(3) organization, CVOEO and our programs are eligible to receive distributions from most donor-advised funds. You can also create a lasting legacy by naming CVOEO as the beneficiary of the entire account or a percentage of the fund. Contact your fund administrator for a beneficiary form.
