Celebrating Generosity: DAF Day 2025

Building Momentum for Giving that Grows

On October 9, 2025, The Community Foundation of Muncie and Delaware County will join a broad coalition of philanthropic leaders in celebrating DAF Day, a national day of action dedicated to the power of Donor-Advised Funds (DAFs).

DAF Day shines a spotlight on one of the fastest-growing tools in philanthropy. A DAF functions like a charitable giving account, allowing donors to contribute assets, receive an immediate tax benefit, and recommend grants to nonprofits over time. It’s a flexible, strategic way to support the causes that matter most—today, tomorrow, and always.

This year marks the second annual DAF Day, building on strong momentum from 2024, when the inaugural celebration sparked increased grantmaking and donor engagement nationwide. It’s a moment to reflect on what matters most in endless ways such as:

  • Supporting the causes you believe in

  • Making a grant from your DAF

  • Join thousands of others giving boldly across the nation

DAF Day is more than a celebration—it’s a movement rooted in the belief that generosity grows stronger when donors and nonprofits work together. It’s a chance to take action, inspire others, and build a community where people choose to live, work, and play.
