DonorAdvisedFunds.com, a platform that matches donors with the optimal vehicle for their charitable giving, has released the 2024 DAF Gold List, a ranking of the 20 most prominent U.S. donor-advised funds based on its proprietary DAFScore algorithm.

“The rapid growth of donor-advised funds has changed the giving game, offering a new level of convenience, tax benefits and flexibility to manage charitable giving over time — which is increasingly attractive to donors, especially during times of economic uncertainty,” Brad Saft, founder and CEO of DonorAdvisedFunds.com, said in a statement. 

The DAFScore algorithm analyzes many of the more than 1,000 active DAF sponsors across a dozen or so metrics including initial contribution requirements, customer service, ease of use and restrictions, issues that the platform says are important to donors. 

See the accompanying gallery for the 20 top-ranked donor-advised funds.\
