How a charitable bequest works
A charitable bequest is one of the easiest gifts to make. With the help of an attorney, you can include language in your will or trust specifying a gift to be made to family, friends or University of New England as part of your estate plan, or you can make a bequest using a beneficiary designation form.
Here are some of the ways to leave a bequest to regname
- Include a bequest to University of New England in your will or revocable trust
- Designate University of New England as a full, partial or contingent beneficiary of your retirement account (IRA, 401(k), 403(b) or pension)
- Name University of New England as a beneficiary of your life insurance policy
A bequest may be made in several ways
- Percentage bequest - Give a percentage of your estate
- Specific bequest - Give a specific dollar amount or a specific asset
- Residual bequest - Give from the balance or residue of your estate
