Bequests in your will are a popular and easy way to leave a legacy to ORT Montreal. Make the dream of economic self-sufficiency part of your legacy by remembering ORT Montreal in your estate plans. Leaving a gift for future generations of ORT students can be as easy as adding a codicil to your will or by speaking to your notary or lawyer. You can give a specific amount, a percentage or the residue of your estate. To expedite your good intentions, here's a recommended clause for making an outright, unrestricted bequest to ORT Montreal:
"I hereby give, devise and bequeath to ORT Montreal, a not-for-profit corporation, having its offices at 208-5165 Sherbrooke Street West, Montreal QC H4A 1T6 or its surviving organizations, (Insert description of gift) to be used for its general, charitable and educational purposes."
A charitable bequest allows individuals to retain use of and control over their assets during their lifetime, and remains fully revocable.
Bequests are also the final expression of a life of caring and concern. Express yourself now by making a gift for the future.
• You can designate the purpose of your gift to a specific school or program.
• The full value of the bequest can be considered a charitable donation for estate tax purposes.
