We’ve made it easy to initiate your Donor-Advised Fund grant recommendation
A donor-advised fund (DAF) is a philanthropic giving vehicle that provides an immediate tax benefit to you and allows you to grant funds to the organziations and causes you care most about. If you have a DAF at one of these popular charitable sponsors, you may recommend your grant today using our Federal Tax ID Number/Employee Identification Number (EIN) #34-6000704:
Other institutions:
Jewish Federation of Cleveland
Donations can be directed to the area of greatest need, Trails Fund, or any of our available restricted funds. You can find a complete listing of available funds below.
PLEASE NOTE: When making a gift via your DAF, please request for your name and address to be included to inform us. We recommend that you contact us directly to inform us of your gift, so that we can credit you properly and thank you for your generosity.
For more information, or if you cannot find your financial institution or charitable sponsor in the links above, please contact Bisi Mikleus, Director of Development, at bm11@clevelandmetroparks.com or (216) 954-3430.
Are there other ways to give from a donor-advised fund?
Many sponsoring organizations of donor-advised funds allow donors to recommend specific organizations to receive any assets remaining in the fund after they have passed away.
To recommend Cleveland Metroparks as the ultimate beneficiary or all or a portion of the remainder of your fund, please contact your sponsoring organization. You may need to provide Cleveland Metroparks name, address, and federal tax identification number (listed above). If you decide to recommend Cleveland Metroparks to receive the remainder of your donor-advised fund, we hope you will share your plans with us so we can include you as an Emerald Necklace Fellow.
