WHAT IS A BEQUEST?

A bequest is a section of your Will or living trust that directs a gift of personal property from your estate to a person, institution, church, school or charity of your choice after you die. It is often the simplest way for a donor to make a significant, lasting gift. Bequests may be used to provide gifts of money, stock, works of art, jewelry, etc.  Gifts of real estate could be devised to beneficiary, or beneficiaries under a Will or trust. After the needs of a spouse, children, and other loved ones have been addressed, many individuals find it satisfying to know that a portion of their resources will go toward a common good.

Making a Bequest to Health Psychology Management Organisation Services – (“the Charity”)

Health Psychology Management Organisation Services (“the Charity”) welcomes gifts by bequest, of any sum, and to support any aspect of its life and work. It especially welcomes money left for its general purposes, for investment with the income applied wherever it is most needed. Such generosity enables the Charity to command its own resources as needs and opportunities, at present unforeseeable, may demand. Nevertheless, you can be sure that the needs will not diminish, and nor will the Charity’s gratitude for any assistance which you are able to offer. Whatever your wishes, the Charity undertakes to abide by them as a condition of accepting your legacy.

This gift could be in several forms:

  • A specific legacy – this is the simplest form of bequest, naming a specific sum of money. This has an disadvantage of not making allowances for any change in your circumstances, or inflation.
  • Bequeath a percentage the advantage of this is that it increases or decreases with your estate. Your other beneficiaries will not suffer from your decision to include a charity in your Will.
  • A residual bequest after making provision for your nearest and dearest, you can give all, or part, of what is left.
  • A gift of real estate or immovable property this can provide income to the beneficiary through rental or sale.
  • An insurance policy an existing policy can be ceded to the beneficiary, or a new policy specifically designed for this
