How to Leave a Gift in Your Will
To leave a gift from your estate to help end violence in Niagara, the following wording can be used:
“I give the sum of _________ to Women’s Place of South Niagara Inc. to be used for its general purposes as Women’s Place of South Niagara Inc. sees fit.” (Women’s Place continues to be our legal name for estate purposes although we are now known as “Birchway Niagara”.)
We suggest you contact and work with your financial advisor or lawyer who can help you plan a bequest that best fits your wishes. Download Will Power’s Guide to talking to your Financial Advisor to help start the conversation.
