Support CCLF Through Donor-Advised Funds
A donor-advised fund (DAF) is a charitable giving program that allows you to combine the most favorable tax benefits with the flexibility to support your favorite causes.
Why donate a DAF to Chicago Community Loan Fund? Your contribution:
- Allows us to continue our mission: to provide flexible, affordable and responsible financing and technical assistance for community stabilization and development efforts and initiatives that benefit low- to moderate-income neighborhoods, families and individuals throughout metropolitan Chicago.
- Offers opportunities for CCLF to invest capital and work on high risk projects that promise a high social impact that can be developed and further stabilize distressed neighborhoods.
- Expands CCLF’s engagement in the public policy arena and advocacy for its legislative and regulatory priorities.
DAFs can easily be set up through a community foundation or your financial institution. Please contact your fund administrator to request the required documentation for a contribution to CCLF.
Chicago Community Loan Fund is a 501(c)3 organization.
Our mailing address is: 29 E Madison St, Suite 1700, Chicago, IL 60602
