Donate / Planned Giving
Tax-Smart Giving
Create meaningful, lasting impact by contributing stock donations, DAF gifts, or other financial assets, all while optimizing your tax benefits.
Donor-Advised Fund (DAF) Gift
A Donor-Advised Fund (DAF) is a simple and tax-smart way to support SeriousFun. By contributing through a DAF, you can make a lasting impact for children with serious illnesses while enjoying tax benefits and flexibility in your giving.
How to Give Through Your DAF?
You can donate online or ask your financial advisor to direct a gift to SeriousFun Children’s Network (EIN# 31-1794455).
Important Note: Please notify us about your DAF gift, as we don’t automatically receive donor information from DAF transfers.
Qualified Charitable Distribution (QCD)
If you’re 70½ or older, you can make a qualified charitable distribution (QCD) directly from your traditional or Roth IRA to SeriousFun Children’s Network. This allows you to transfer up to $100,000 annually tax-free at the federal level, with most states offering similar tax-free treatment. It’s a smart way to make a meaningful impact while reducing your taxable income.
Stock Donations
Support SeriousFun while maximizing your tax benefits by donating appreciated securities. By giving stocks directly, you can avoid capital gains taxes and make a greater impact for children with serious illnesses.
Crypto Donations
Donate cryptocurrency to SeriousFun and give kids facing significant medical challenges the opportunity to experience joy, connection, and belonging at camp. Your gift is a secure and tax-efficient way to make a meaningful impact.
Give Joy for Generations
Include SeriousFun in your will or estate plans and ensure kids with serious illnesses can experience the magic of camp for years to come.
