Remember a charity in your will.
It’s a little known fact that most charities wouldn’t survive without gifts in Wills. While 70% of people are said to support a charity during their lives, just 7% continue supporting them once they are gone. So it’s not difficult to see why so many of them struggle for funds on an ongoing basis.
By remembering your favourite charities in your Will however, you are ensuring that their good work carries on.
After you’ve taken care of loved ones, think about whether your estate enables you to provide for the charity of your choice – this can be a lump sum or a percentage of the estate.
How do you leave a gift to a charity in your will?
It’s very simple to leave a gift to charity in your Will.
If you’ve not yet made a Will, get in touch about making a Will and we’ll arrange a meeting with you to talk you through the process. All we’ll need is the official name of the charity and the amount you wish to give.
If you already have a Will, you have the option to cancel this and write a new one which includes your latest wishes – this is also a good opportunity to review your will and amend anything else you would like to change/update.
Some will-writers charge an additional fee for including a gift to charity in your Will – we don’t! It’s all part of our fixed fee Wills service
