Step 3: Start Receiving Gifts Directly
Now that your account is set up and you’ve agreed to the terms, you’ll be ready to start receiving gifts directly from each DAF provider. Here’s what to expect:
Notification: Receive email notifications for each donation made to your nonprofit.
Access Funds: Funds are sent directly to your nonprofit by the DAF provider with a Tracking ID provided in the grant note for easy reconciliation.
