Leaving a gift in your will is a personal decision; it is a great way to do some good for the world, support in the future if you are unable to do so now and create a long lasting legacy for yourself. By leaving a gift in your will to EOA Foundation, you are supporting a cause that is near to your heart and your heirs could benefit financially from that gift if it reduces or eliminates your estate tax obligations. Your gift will make a great impact to those that need it.

• Specific gifts – Item of value such as painting, an heirloom, jewellery or shares and bonds.
• Residual gift – the remainder of your estate after all payments have been made to beneficiaries. So, if you left specific and general gifts to your children, the residue of your estate would be any assets that are leftover and weren’t gifted to a specific person or organization.
• Pecuniary gift – this is a specific sum of money.

We always recommend you speak to a solicitor, or other will-writing professional when making updates or writing a will; leaving money to charity in your will is relatively straightforward but sometimes can be an overwhelming process.

• Decide what to give – you can choose to give a specific gift, residual gift or a pecuniary gift. Please discuss this with your loved ones to avoid catching them off guard and to avoid drawn-out disputes.
