How Daffodil Discovery works for giving circles

Pool contributions from every member into a single donor-advised fund. Grant collectively with full visibility for everyone.

Define your circle's focus areas. Daffodil surfaces nonprofits with verified outcomes that match — ready to discuss at your next meeting.

After each grant, your circle's impact stream updates as nonprofits share progress. Keep members engaged between meetings.

Compare organizations on qualitative and quantitative outcomes data before the circle votes — informed decisions, every time.

Build and share curated shortlists with the group. Everyone sees the same research, in one place.

Platform features

Research nonprofits, track impact, manage giving, and collaborate with your team. Everything in one place, for everyone.

Give through a DAF: Open a donor-advised fund and grant to any verified U.S. nonprofit, tax-efficiently, with a full audit trail.
Multiple DAFs, one account: Spin up separate funds for different purposes: cause areas, time horizons, or initiatives, all under one login.
Invite your team: Add colleagues, advisors, or family members with the right level of access for each.
Curate nonprofit lists: Build and share curated lists of nonprofits, funders, and causes for research, reporting, or collective decision-making.
Real-time impact streams: Live updates from the nonprofits you support, surfaced based on your giving or areas of interest. Zero added work for the orgs involved.
Smart surveying: Deploy surveys for deeper insights. We monitor and meter every request, and auto-answer where we already have the data, so we never overburden nonprofits.
