Gift in a Will
A legacy gift in your Will can have a tremendous impact for years to come. It may assist in reducing taxes owed by your estate, while supporting your values and beliefs. It also allows you the use of your assets in your lifetime, and is revocable should your circumstances change. There are many ways to include The Roberta Bondar Foundation in your Will. All that is needed is adding a few sentences to your will through a codicil.
Suggested wording for a residual gift: “I direct my Trustees to pay or transfer to The Roberta Bondar Foundation the residue (or share of the residue) of my estate to further its mission and charitable programs.”
Suggested wording for a specific gift: “I direct my Trustees to pay or transfer to The Roberta Bondar Foundation the sum of $_____ to further its mission and charitable programs.”
If you have already named The Roberta Bondar Foundation in your Will, please let us know. We would like to thank you and ensure you are kept up to date with news and information.
We highly recommend that when considering a planned gift in your Will, you obtain professional financial and legal advice to assess options that are best for your goals, stage of life, and financial circumstances. Your lawyer can help you with key information and details regarding your Will.
