SAMPLE GIFT-IN-WILL LANGUAGE

Leaving a gift in your will (sometimes called a bequest) to a charity that you love is a great expression of your personal values and may be simpler than you think. We’ve developed language for the most common types of in-will gifts. These are suggestions and should be written or adapted by your legal counsel to fit your situation.

• General Support. “I give to Centerville Rotary Foundation, of Centerville OH (EIN 31-0899445) the sum of $__________ (OR all my right, title and interest in the following described property _________) to be used in such manner as the Board of Directors of said organization shall, in its sole discretion, determine.”

• Residuary Bequest. “I give to Centerville Rotary Foundation, of Centerville OH (EIN 31-0899445) the residue of my estate to be used in such manner as the Board of Directors of said organization shall, in its sole discretion, determine.”

• Proportional Bequest. “I give to Centerville Rotary Foundation, of Centerville OH (EIN 31-0899445) [A STATED PERCENTAGE OR A FRACTION OF THE RESIDUE OF MY ESTATE] to be used in such manner as the Board of Directors of said organization shall, in its sole discretion, determine.”

• Contingent Bequest. “In the event that [NAME OF SPOUSE, CHILD, SIBLING, OR OTHER HEIR] shall not survive me, then I give the same to Centerville Rotary Foundation, of Centerville OH (EIN 31-0899445) to be used in such manner as the Board of Directors of said organization shall, in its sole discretion, determine.”

AGE 70 1/2 + IRA DISTRIBUTIONS

• Qualified Charitable Distributions or QCDs. A QCD offers folks over age 70 1/2 an avenue to make the most of their funds both philanthropically and financially, without increasing their taxable income. A direct transfer from an IRA or 401(k) to a qualified charity, is not taxed and is excluded from the owner's taxable income. QCDs allow folks to give tax free to charity up to $100,000 per year. For those who are at least 73 years old, QCDs count toward the required minimum distribution (RMD) for the year. Centerville Rotary Foundation (EIN 31-0899445) is a 501(c)3 organization, and eligible to receive QCDs, and as such does not pay income tax. Thank you for considering Centerville Rotary Foundation as a recipient of any opportunity you may have to donate qualified funds to charity.

Our foundation is able to accept monetary donations as well as estate gifts (such as trusts, stock, or other non-monetary gifts). Centerville Rotary Foundation is a 501(c) 3 charitable organization, contributions to which are tax-deductible as permitted by law. The official registration and financial information of Centerville Rotary Foundation may be obtained from the Ohio Secretary of State's office by calling toll free 877-767-6446.
