Including a gift in your will is a powerful way to make a lasting impact on the causes you care about—while still ensuring your loved ones are supported. It’s a simple yet significant way to build a better future for your community.
There are a few straightforward ways to leave a gift in your will to United Way Centraide Canada:
- Residual Gift: You can leave all or a portion of what remains in your estate after your other wishes (e.g., gifts to children and grandchildren) have been fulfilled.
- Percentage of Estate: You may choose to allocate a specific percentage of your estate to United Way Centraide Canada—whether it's 1% or 25%, every gift makes a difference.
- Specific Amount or Asset: You can leave a set dollar amount, or a particular asset such as stocks or bonds.
As a reminder, a gift in your will is revocable, meaning you can update or change it at any time to reflect your wishes. You remain in full control of your assets throughout your lifetime.
