Additional Smart Ways to Give to Profectum Foundation

Your generosity helps Profectum Foundation advance DIR® model education and training that supports professionals and families. Thoughtful giving strategies both strengthen our mission and provide meaningful tax advantages for you.

Give Through a Donor-Advised Fund (DAF)

A Donor-Advised Fund (DAF) allows you to make charitable contributions, receive an immediate tax benefit, and recommend grants over time.

  • Recommend a grant to Profectum Foundation from your existing DAF
  • Make one-time or recurring gifts
  • Include Profectum Foundation as part of your long-term giving or legacy plans

Donate Appreciated Securities

Donating appreciated stocks or other securities is a powerful way to support Profectum Foundation while maximizing tax efficiency.

  • Avoid capital gains taxes you might incur if you sold the assets
  • Potentially deduct the full fair market value of the securities
  • Make an immediate impact in support of Profectum’s educational and training programs


We are happy to work with you or your financial advisor to facilitate a smooth transfer.

Make Qualified Charitable Distributions (QCDs) from Your IRA

If you are age 70½ or older, you may be able to make a tax-free gift directly from your IRA to Profectum Foundation through a Qualified Charitable Distribution (QCD).

  • QCDs can count toward your required minimum distribution (RMD)
  • The donated amount is not included in your taxable income
  • You may give up to the IRS-allowed annual limit per individual
  • Gifts must be made directly from your IRA custodian to Profectum Foundation


We recommend speaking with your IRA custodian or financial advisor to determine whether a QCD is right for you.

Include Profectum in Your Planned Giving

Including Profectum Foundation in your long-term giving or legacy plans is a meaningful way to ensure lasting support for our educational and training programs. 

  • Planned gifts can provide significant tax advantages while helping you align your philanthropy with your personal and financial goals.
  • Planned gifts can take the form of transferring assets through your estate, your DAF, appreciated securities, or QCD. 


We encourage you to consult with your financial or tax advisor and are happy to work with you to help facilitate gifts that support your legacy and Profectum Foundation’s mission.
