Sponsorship FAQs

  • Can I pay for my sponsorship from my donor-advised fund?

    We encourage our sponsors to pay via card, check or cash rather than transferring money from a DAF to avoid any potential conflicts with IRS regulations. The IRS does not look favorably upon using DAFs to pay for sponsorships, though it is not expressly prohibited. If you are interested in learning more about using your DAF to support the Founders Luncheon, contact Stacey Bell, Chief Financial Officer, to talk about your options.

  • Is my non-DAF sponsorship tax-deductible?

    Anything above the cost of goods and services — food, programming, etc. — is tax-deductible. For the Founders Luncheon, we calculate the cost of goods and services to be $150 per ticket. For example: A $10,000 sponsorship includes 10 tickets at $150 per person ($1,500); therefore, the tax-deductible portion is $8,500.
