Private Foundation vs Donor Advised Fund: 2026 Tax Guide

In this video, we break down the exact IRS rules for 2026 so you can make the right call before December 31.

What you will learn: why DAF cash deductions go up to 60% of AGI while private foundations cap at 30%, how contributing appreciated stock to a DAF eliminates capital gains tax entirely, why private foundations owe a 1.39% excise tax on investment income every year while DAFs grow tax-free, and how the hybrid strategy using both vehicles works for donors with $5M or more in philanthropic assets.

We also walk through a real client case study where one biotech executive saved over $159,500 in capital gains taxes alone with one strategic DAF contribution.
