Donor-Advised Fund
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. DAF Direct enables you to recommend grants to FFI through Emory University from your DAF (as long as your DAF’s sponsoring organization is participating). Using the DAF Direct widget, you can initiate a DAF grant recommendation from our website.
Doubling Your Gift
You may even be able to double or triple the value of your donation if your employer has a matching gift program. You can reach out to one of Emory University’s advancement staff members to discuss giving options, learn more about employer matching, or make a gift. See if your employer matches gifts.
Funding Exception
The blend of vitamins and minerals added to grain products during fortification is called premix. We do not endorse any premix manufacturer. We invite all interested premix companies to sponsor lunches, receptions, or coffee breaks at our events, but to avoid conflicts of interest, we limit annual contributions from premix suppliers. Premix companies are also not represented on the Executive Management Team.
Donor Privacy Policy
FFI is committed to respecting the privacy of donors. The information you provide when you make a gift through Emory University will be used by FFI for the purpose of correctly allocating, crediting, and acknowledging your gift. We will not trade, share, or sell your personal information to any third party. On rare occasions, Emory University may be legally required to disclose information. We subscribe and adhere to the Association of Fundraising Professionals (AFP) Donor Bill of Rights, which you may view online at the AFP website.
Financial Accountability
FFI relies on the financial generosity of individuals, corporations, foundations, and government agencies to help us continue building a smarter, stronger, and healthier future. Accountability and transparency are an important part of our work. Our funding is used to help us efficiently and effectively fulfill our mission.
