Donor Advised Funds

A Donor Advised Fund (DAF) is an easy, flexible, and tax-efficient way to support Seattle Parks Foundation (SPF). DAF gifts can be made to SPF from your fund, or you can designate SPF as a charitable beneficiary.

Making a DAF gift is easy—just contact your sponsoring organization and recommend a grant to SPF.

To find Seattle Parks Foundation in your DAF’s list of qualified charities, search by our Tax ID # 91-1998597.

Please let us know when you have initiated a transfer by emailing us at donations@seattleparksfoundation.org. Advance notification helps us ensure that we credit you for your gift and apply any program designations for your donation.

Seattle Parks Foundation is a registered 501(c)(3). EIN 91-1998597

Address: PO Box 3541, Seattle, WA 98124-3541

If you are a client of BNY Mellon, DAF Giving360, or Fidelity Charitable, click here to make a designation through DAF Direct.

Interested in setting up a Donor Advised Fund?

Contact your local community foundation or financial institution to find out if they offer DAFs.


Open a DAF with a written agreement. Most DAFs require a minimum gift to open your fund, at which time you will be eligible for a Federal income tax charitable deduction.

Turn your DAF into a lasting legacy by naming Seattle Parks Foundation as a full or partial beneficiary.
