Donor-Advised Funds (DAFs)

A Donor-Advised Fund is a flexible way to plan your charitable giving. You can contribute cash, securities, or other assets, receive an immediate tax benefit, and recommend grants to the causes you care about over time. 

By recommending a grant to the Vancouver Humane Society, you can help create a kinder future for animals. Your support can provide urgent veterinary care for animals whose guardians are facing financial hardship, help families stay together, and advance advocacy and education to reduce suffering for farmed, wild, and captive animals. 

If you already have a Donor-Advised Fund, you can recommend a grant to VHS through your fund administrator. You may also be able to name the VHS as a beneficiary of your fund, creating a lasting legacy for animals. 

To recommend a grant, please use our legal name, Vancouver Humane Society, and our charitable registration number: 8897 13178 RR 0001.
