Becoming a donor to EDHAF provides reliable and sustainable funding for our grants to the local non-profits that are doing so much to build and enrich our community.

  • Visit our secure One Time Donation form. After making your gift, you will receive a tax receipt for the full amount of your gift immediately via email.

  • Send a check payable to the El Dorado Hills Area Foundation.

    Mail the check to:
    PO Box 4891, El Dorado Hills, CA, 95762

  • Consider donating stock, mutual funds, and other appreciated securities. As a donor, you are entitled to take a charitable deduction at the current full fair-market value of appreciated securities held longer than one year. As a direct benefit, you avoid paying the capital gains tax due if you sold the appreciated securities.

    If your stocks or other equities are currently held at a bank or in a brokerage account, all you need to do is send a letter of instruction to your broker or banker with a full description of the securities and your gift's intended purpose in support of EDHAF. We will stand by ready to work with you and your financial institution to ensure a straightforward and swift transaction. And, per donor wishes, will direct all or part of your donation the EDHAF Endowment Fund or have it go towards our annual non-profit grants.

  • If you have funds at a DAF, you can direct the DAF to make a donation on your behalf to EDHAF via the El Dorado Community Foundation.  When you request the donation through your DAF, if there is a note field, please specify that the donation is to go to EDHAF.  If there is no note field, please contact info@eldoradocf.org to let them know that your donation to EDHAF is being made from a DAF through the El Dorado Community Foundation so we can make sure it is credited to the appropriate account.
