Cystic Fibrosis Foundation - South Texas Chapter

Did you know you can support the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation through a donor-advised fund (DAF)? A DAF is a charitable giving account that allows you to contribute cash, stocks, or other assets, receive an immediate tax deduction, and recommend grants to the causes you care about most. It's a flexible and easy way to support the CF Foundation with a one-time or recurring gift, or in the future as a beneficiary.

Learn more about giving through a DAF: https://www.cff.org/get-involved/other-ways-give

Please consult your DAF sponsor and financial or legal advisor regarding DAF giving. The Cystic Fibrosis Foundation cannot provide tax or legal advice.
