A better way to give

We make it easy to donate shares to causes close to your heart while gaining additional tax benefits.

A tax-smart way to support causes you care about.

Donating shares held for over a year can reduce your tax bill while still making a positive impact. Betterment partners with both a donor-advised fund and individual charities.

Donate to nearly any U.S. charity through a donor-advised fund.

A donor-advised fund (DAF) is a tax-advantaged investment account. With Daffy, you can donate to over 1.5 million charities, schools, and faith-based organizations—all in one place. Learn more about donor-advised funds (DAFs)
