Frequently asked questions.

What is a donor-advised fund?

A donor-advised fund, or DAF, is a charitable giving account managed by a sponsoring organization. You recommend grants to charities you want to support; the sponsoring organization reviews and approves those grants. Learn more from the IRS.

Can I recommend recurring grants?

Ask your DAF provider whether it offers recurring grants and how to set them up. Ongoing support can help YBLC plan for education, training, and life skills throughout the year.

Can I support a specific program or campaign?

Yes. YBLC’s giving options include support for our overall mission, a specific program, or the Transforming Futures campaign. Contact our Development team about your preferred designation before submitting the recommendation.

What if I can’t find YBLC in my provider’s directory?

Try searching by our EIN, 20-0549865, or our legal name, YBLC Inc. If you still need help, contact your fund administrator. Our Development team can provide organization information requested by your provider.

Should I let YBLC know about my grant?

We’d love to thank you. You can ask your provider to include your name and contact information with the grant, or contact our Development team directly. If you prefer to remain anonymous, follow your provider’s instructions.
