Would you like to extend your values of caring and compassion beyond your lifetime to help others in the future? Where there’s a will, there’s a way. By naming Our Place Society as a beneficiary in your will, your legacy will help us continue to nourish hope, dignity, community, and change for those who experience poverty, homelessness, mental health issues, and substance abuse disorder. The meals, shelter, and services you support could make all the difference for someone who wants to transform their life but just needs a hand up. What a legacy of love that would be.
A gift in your will, known as a bequest, is paid out through your estate. You won’t have to give up any of your income or savings during your lifetime. It will also generate a charitable tax receipt which can reduce the income tax payable by your estate.
Your estate plans will shape the legacy you leave, the charitable work closest to your heart, and your loved ones. Talk with your family to let them know what you want to achieve with your will and why. Family always comes first. But know that you can have your cake and eat it, too: after providing for your loved ones in your will, you can include a residual bequest (a percentage of your remaining estate) that will provide food, shelter, and a hand up in the future to the Our Place “family members.”
