WAYS TO GIVE
Recommend a grant to
Indigenous media's infrastructure.
A grant from your donor-advised fund sustains the operational backbone behind Indigenous journalism, built for seven generations. IndiJ Public Media is registered with DAF Direct, so recommending a gift takes only a few minutes.
What is a donor-advised fund?
A donor-advised fund — or DAF — is a charitable giving account created for the sole purpose of supporting nonprofit organizations. You contribute cash, stock or other assets, receive an immediate tax benefit, and recommend grants to the causes you care about over time. DAFs are one of the fastest-growing ways people give, valued for their simplicity and tax efficiency.
How a donor-advised fund works
-
You make an irrevocable, tax-deductible contribution of cash, stock or other assets
to a sponsoring organization and receive your tax benefit when the funds are deposited. - The sponsoring organization holds and oversees those funds, which can grow tax-free over time.
- You retain advisory privileges recommending how and when grants are made and how the assets are invested.
- You recommend single or recurring grants to qualified public charities, including IndiJ Public Media.
- Once your sponsor approves, the grant is sent to the organization you have chosen.
Your grant builds the backbone, not just the byline.
IndiJ Public Media is the operational backbone of ICT, providing the systems, people, and stewardship that let the newsroom do its work.
A grant from your donor-advised fund sustains that foundation: the journalists, the platforms, and the standards that carry Native stories to the people who need them.
Why give through a donor-advised fund?
A DAF lets you give thoughtfully, on your own timeline, while making the most of the tax advantages available to you.
- Support the causes you believe in through planned, intentional giving over time.
- Build a lasting legacy that reflects your values.
- Bring all of your charitable giving together in one place.
- Keep your family involved in charitable decisions across generations.
- Take an immediate tax benefit while distributing grants later.
- Combine gifts of appreciated stock to give more efficiently.
