Subject: [Organization] is joining DAF Day on October 8
Dear [First Name],
On October 8, 2026, organizations across the country will mark DAF Day, Canada's national giving day for donor-advised funds. [Organization] is proud to be taking part.
More than $17 billion is already committed to charity in Canadian donor-advised funds. DAF Day is the one day the whole sector celebrates that generosity in motion, and moves more of it to the causes Canadians care about.
Here's how you can be part of it:
- If you have a DAF, plan a grant recommendation for October 8
- If you've been thinking about a more intentional, tax-smart way to give, DAF Day is a great moment to explore whether a DAF is right for you
- Share the day with friends and colleagues so more of Canada's generosity gets moving
We'll share more as October 8 gets closer. In the meantime, you can learn more at dafday.ca.
With appreciation,
[Signature]
