A Gift in Your Will or Living TrustInterested in supporting the mission of Badin High School but feel overwhelmed by the thought of writing another check or giving up your assets today? A simple, flexible and versatile way to ensure we can continue our work for years to come is a gift in your will or living trust, known as a charitable bequest.
By including a bequest to Badin in your will or living trust, you are ensuring that we can continue our mission for generations. Your gift may also entitle your estate to federal estate tax deductions.
Check Out This Potential Scenario
When Tom and Sandy got married, they made a point to put together a will to protect their assets. They both loved Badin and decided to include a bequest of $50,000 to us in their will.
As Tom and Sandy’s family grew to include three children, they decided to revise their gift to ensure their children’s future financial security. They met with their attorney and simply revised the bequest language so that their gift to Badin was now a percentage of their estate instead of a specific amount. Tom and Sandy rest easy knowing that when they die, their plans will provide for the people and charitable work they love.
