Planned Giving
Leaving a bequest to Ten Lives Club through your will and testament will ensure that your personal wishes will be carried out. Your will can be tailored to fit your personal goals and needs. The best part is that wills are relatively easy to execute and may reduce or eliminate gift and estate taxes. A simple clause can be added to most wills to achieve your charitable intent, such as….
1. A fixed amount of money or designated property
a. “I give to Ten Lives Club Cat Adoption Group, EIN #16-1611221, located in Blasdell, New York, $_____(or describe the real or personal property, including exact location).
2. A percentage of the estate
a. “I give to Ten Lives Club Cat Adoption Group, EIN #16-1611221, located in Blasdell, New York, ________% of my estate.”
3. A residual bequest
a. “I give all the residue of my estate, including real and personal property, Ten Lives Club Cat Adoption Group, EIN #16-1611221, located in Blasdell, New York.”
