Thank you for considering a bequest in your Will. Your gift will live beyond your own lifetime and will ensure the long term future of our goal to educate and promote good hearing health for all New Zealanders.
A bequest is a special provision in a persons Will to donate a specific gift to a charitable cause such as NFD. This enables the gifting of a sum of money, property, an insurance policy, shares or any assets to a chosen charity.
A Will is a legal document that states your instructions about what you want done with your property and possessions when you die, and how you want your dependents to be looked after.
Completion of a Codicil (an appendix) is all that is required to include a bequest in an existing Will.
A Will and a Codicil must be worded and witnessed correctly to be legally binding. We strongly advise you consult your lawyer to ensure your wishes will be clearly understood and carried out.
