DAF Day, a national day of giving with donor-advised funds, is on Thursday, October 9th, 2025. Local pets are looking to you for support!

If you have a DAF, Connecticut Humane Society pets hope you’ll recommend a gift to them on the big day.

Don’t have a DAF just yet? It’s a great way to invest in giving—just like a 401(k) for your retirement. Chat more with your local community foundation or a financial advisor to learn more.

Show the world what your DAF can do when you unite with other caring hearts and give on DAF Day, Thursday, October 9th.

A donor advised fund, which is like a charitable savings account, gives you the flexibility to recommend how much and how often money is granted to the Connecticut Humane Society and other qualified charities. You can recommend a grant or recurring grants now to make an immediate impact or use your fund as a tool for future charitable gifts.

You can also create a lasting legacy by naming the Connecticut Humane Society the beneficiary of the entire account or a percentage of the fund. With a percentage, you can create a family legacy of giving by naming your loved ones as your successor to continue recommending grants to charitable organizations. Contact your fund administrator for a beneficiary form.
