Updated tax guidelines for using donor advised funds and IRA distributions for event sponsorships.

Under current IRS regulations, Donor Advised Funds (DAFs) and IRA Qualified Charitable Distributions (QCDs) may be used to sponsor fundraising events; however, any associated benefits—such as event tickets—must be declined in order for the contribution to remain fully tax-compliant.

If you wish to attend the event, you may separately purchase up to 10 tickets using a personal or business account. Tickets for Autumn Harvest are $300 each. Click here for additional guidance on using DAFs and IRA Distributions for Event Sponsorships.

Please note: Previous IRS rules allowed nonprofits to deduct the value of tickets from a sponsorship when funded by a DAF. This is no longer permitted.
