Estate Giving Remember us in your Will. With a planned gift you can make a significant contribution to Providence House. Below is some information to help you include Providence House in your estate. We recommend that you obtain the professional advice of a financial planner and/or an attorney who specializes in estate planning before finalizing your plans. Leaving a Bequest to Providence House: A bequest in your will allows you to pass any amount you wish to Providence House free of estate tax. Bequests can take various forms. You can give cash or specific property, a dollar amount or a percentage of your estate, with restrictions or without. To make a bequest to Providence House, please include the following information in your will: Providence House 703 Lexington Avenue Brooklyn, NY 11221 The following examples of several types of bequests are included for your consideration in preparing your will: General Bequest: A general bequest is one of the most popular ways to make a planned gift. Through a general bequest you simply leave a specified dollar amount to the designated charity. Percentage of Estate/Residuary Bequest: Giving a percentage of your estate or a residuary bequest is used to give the charitable organization all or a portion of your property, after all debts, taxes, expenses and all other bequests have been paid. Specific Bequest: A specific bequest is another popular type of charitable bequest. With this bequest, you designate that a charitable organization is to receive a specific piece of property. Contingent Bequest: When writing a will, it is important to plan for the situation where the beneficiary of a bequest dies before you or disclaims the property. Consider naming a charitable organization as the alternate or contingent beneficiary. This will ensure that the property will pass to the designated charity rather than to unintended beneficiaries. Restricted Bequest: The samples of bequest provisions suggested above are designed to provide unrestricted gifts. You may prefer, however, to restrict your bequest for a specific purpose. For example, if you wish to memorialize a family member or an honored colleague, you can establish a named fund that will provide support for a program of Providence House in which you or the honored person were particularly interested. A restricted bequest usually should be made in the broadest terms possible consistent with your interests. This guards against the possibility that the purpose of the gift has become obsolete at the time of your death.
