YOU HAVE THE POWER TO IMPROVE THE LIVES OF PEOPLE FACING CANCER AND THEIR
FAMILIES BY SUPPORTING ADVOCACY, RESEARCH, AND PATIENT SUPPORT.

You can now give to the American Cancer Society from your Donor Advised Fund
(DAF) account in just 3 clicks. Donate directly on our website from hundreds of
DAF providers including Fidelity, Schwab, Vanguard, and more.

Please select the “Give with Donor Advised Fund” button below to get started.



--------------------------------------------------------------------------------


WHY GIVE FROM YOUR DONOR ADVISED FUND ON THIS PAGE?

Initiating your grant on our website is the fastest and easiest way to give. But
it can also:

 * Save time and money tracking your gift
 * Make our team immediately aware of your gift
 * Help avoid lost checks, mailing delays, or gifts accidentally being submitted
   to the wrong organization or campaign


NEED HELP?

Call 1-800-227-2345 or email philanthropy@cancer.org if you have questions about
giving to the American Cancer Society through your donor-advised fund. If you
don’t already have one, your financial advisor can help you set up your
personalized donor-advised fund.

If you already benefit from donor advised funds, please make checks payable to
"American Cancer Society" and mail them to the following address:

American Cancer Society
P.O. Box 6704

AMERICAN CANCER SOCIETY DONOR ADVISED FUND


Create a philanthropic legacy and help us end cancer as we know it, for
everyone, by opening a Donor Advised Fund (DAF) through the American Cancer
Society. The American Cancer Society DAF allows you to combine the most
favorable tax benefits with the flexibility to easily support our lifesaving
mission.


WHAT ARE THE MAIN ADVANTAGES OF A DONOR-ADVISED FUND?

 * Simplicity: the donor-advised fund sponsor handles all record-keeping,
   disbursements, and tax receipts.
 * Flexibility: timing of your tax deduction can be separate from your
   charitable decision-making.
 * Tax-efficiency: contributions are tax-deductible, and any investment growth
   in the DAF is tax-free. It is also easy to donate long-term appreciated
   securities, eliminating capital gains taxes.
 * Family legacy: a DAF is a powerful way to build or continue a tradition of
   family philanthropy.
 * No transaction fees: once approved, 100% of your recommended grant goes to
   the American Cancer Society.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------


WE ARE THE ONLY ORGANIZATION COMBATING CANCER THROUGH ADVOCACY, RESEARCH, AND
PATIENT SUPPORT, TO ENSURE EVERYONE HAS AN OPPORTUNITY TO PREVENT, DETECT,
TREAT, AND SURVIVE CANCER.

A DONATION TO THE AMERICAN CANCER SOCIETY THROUGH A DONOR ADVISED FUND WILL HELP
PROVIDE:

 * More free rides to treatment, free lodging near hospitals, and information
   and support through a live 24/7 cancer helpline
 * More bright minds working to discover new treatments and targeted therapies
 * More voices speaking up for people with cancer, federal research funding, and
   proven prevention strategies
 * More people surviving cancer, getting the best care possible from diagnosis
   to survivorship – no matter where they live or what their circumstances

Call 1-800-227-2345 to learn how to establish a donor-advised fund with the
American Cancer Society, or complete the Donor Contribution Agreement.
