Leave a Legacy
Perpetuating Your Values: A Legacy
A legacy is defined as something that is handed down by a predecessor. In later life, people begin to ponder their legacy to their family and friends. Initially, they tend to think of specific things of value...jewelery, china, a watch, a home, or a business. Eventually, it becomes clear that a legacy is much more than valuable things and its impact can extend beyond families and friends to the community. A legacy also encompasses the beliefs and values that we hold dear and hand down to our children and our world that will endure long beyond our lifetimes.
How will your legacy perpetuate your beliefs and values? Through a bequest, you can not only remember your loved ones with the things you have valued, but you can perpetuate your beliefs and values and support the work of the organizations and causes that have been important to you in your lifetime.
A bequest which is part of your legacy can take many forms. As you think about your legacy and your values, consider the ways in which you could support Divine Feline in its mission to spay/neuter feral cats and reduce the number of homeless cats and kittens.
* Specific bequests transfer a particular piece of property
* General bequests transfer a stated sum of money
* Contingent bequests require a certain event to occur before distribution (for example, you could bequeath funds to family members with the contingency that these funds would go to Divine Feline if those family members do not survive you).
* Residuary bequests transfer the “rest, residue and remainder” of your estate, or a percentage of the residue, after all other bequests, debts and taxes have been paid.
* Unrestricted bequests allow the beneficiaries to use the assets in any way they see fit.
* Restricted bequests allow you to specify how the funds are to be used.
* Honorary or memorial bequests are given to commemorate someone.
