Making a Will is such an important thing to do. It gives you the opportunity to safeguard what is important to you and how you want your assets to be managed. Legal considerations aside for a moment, the financial legacy you leave through a Bequest is a real blessing in the physical world. In this last gesture of sacrificial giving, you express your God-given goodness and love in such a meaningful way. Including a gift to your favourite charity, non-profit organisation or community group is one way to continue your valued support beyond your earthly life. You may find the following words helpful for inclusion in your Will. However, it is most important to seek legal advice in bequeathing gifts to charitable, non-profit organisations. For your gift to the International Needs Overseas Assistance and Development Fund, we recommend the following wording for your legal advisor's consideration: "I give, free of all duties and taxes the whole of my estate, or ____ % of my estate, or the residue of my estate (or ____ % of the residue of my estate), or the sum of $____ . __ or my units/shares in _______________ Trust/Ltd, or my real property situated at [insert street address] having the Title reference number ______. to - International Needs Overseas Assistance and Development Fund ABN 84 006 053 229 PO Box 121 Mitcham VIC 3132 The receipt of the Treasurer, Secretary or Public Officer for the time being of International Needs Overseas Assistance and Development Fund is an absolute discharge to my Executor."
