Making a Bequest   

If you are considering making a bequest/s in your will, a bequest to Linwood Te Aratai Foundation is a very significant and special way of supporting the future success of our Students.

There are several ways in which you can nominate your gift.

• A Specified Sum
  This is a very common form of bequest where you specify a fixed amount. However it is recommended that you review your will every five years.
• A Percentage Bequest
  This allows for a specific percentage/proportion of your estate to be bequeathed to the Trust.
• A Residuary Bequest  
  You may leave the balance of your estate to the Trust after all other expenses have been deducted.
• Gift of Assets
  You may prefer to leave a specified gift to the Trust, for example a property, shares, stocks, bonds, jewellery, works of art or other gifts you wish to nominate. These may be retained by the Trust as a capital investment or sold to raise funds.

 

If you would like to make a bequest/gift to the Linwood Te Aratai Foundation Trust in your will please consult your lawyer/solicitor or financial advisor.

If you would like to talk over the possibility of making a bequest, please do not hesitate to contact us.
