Give from Your Donor Advised Fund (DAF)

A gift from your Donor Advised Fund (DAF) is a powerful, tax-efficient way to support St. Ignatius's students and programs. If you already have a DAF account with a sponsor such as Fidelity Charitable, Schwab Charitable, or Vanguard Charitable, recommending a grant to us is easy!

To make a gift to us through your DAF, you will need the following information when you contact them:

St. Ignatius College Preparatory 
(we are also sometimes listed as The Ignatian Corporation)
2001 37th Avenue
San Francisco, CA 94116

Federal Tax ID Number (EIN): 94-1451515

Purpose of Grant: When you request your grant, you should include the fund you want it to support at St. Ignatius. “SI’s Greatest Need” or “New Learning Commons” etc.

Tax Acknowledgment: Please Note: The IRS recognizes contributions made into your DAF as the tax-deductible event. Therefore, gifts received by St. Ignatius from your DAF are not tax-deductible to you and will be acknowledged with a thank you letter—not a tax receipt.

• Prohibited Grants (Event Tickets, Pledges, etc.): DAF grants cannot be used to purchase event tickets, fund auction purchases, or fulfill personal pledges. If you wish to give a DAF grant for general support and purchase event tickets, the two transactions must be separate. As the full cost of attending the event must be paid separately, not just the non tax-deductible portion.
• For Anonymous Donors: "If you wish to remain anonymous, please advise your DAF sponsor. If you do want us to recognize your generosity, please ensure your DAF sponsor includes your name and contact information when they send the grant."

If you have questions about making a DAF grant or ensuring your gift is properly directed, please contact our Advancement Office at advancement@siprep.org
