Remember PWC in your Will
One important way for our supporters to help future generations is to leave a gift to PWC in their will. A “bequest” is simple and can be accomplished in as little as one or two sentences. These gifts provide a lasting legacy and often lessen the burden of taxes on your family.
​
You can leave a specific dollar amount or asset, a percentage of your estate or the residue of your estate:
Examples of simple language to include in your will:
SPECIFIC BEQUEST
This type of bequest states a specific dollar amount or a percentage of your estate or could also specify a unique asset to go to PWC. This could include gifts of cash, securities, or personal property to be designated to PWC.
“I bequeath (the sum of $_______) or (______% of the net value of estate) or (describe the unique asset to be gifted) to People Working Cooperatively, Tax # 31-0859104, 4612 Paddock Road, Cincinnati, Ohio 45229.”
RESIDUAL BEQUEST
This gift ensures your loved ones and friends are provided for first and gives PWC whatever remains.
​
“I devise the residual of my estate, after the satisfaction of all specific bequests and payment of all taxes and other costs attending my death, to People Working Cooperatively, Tax # 31-0859104, 4612 Paddock Road, Cincinnati, Ohio 45229.”
​
We recommend you seek the advice of your attorney and/or financial planner to make certain your bequest is compatible with your personal legacy wishes and financial goals.
