Legacy Giving
When you include the Cape and Islands United Way in your estate planning, you are leaving a legacy of hope and making a lasting change in the lives of future generations. All legacy gifts support the Cape and Islands United Way endowment – ensuring that your gift keeps giving to your community in perpetuity.
A bequest is the simplest way to make a lasting gift – and amendments can easily be added to your existing will without the need to re-do the entire document. To make a gift to the Cape and Islands United Way through your will, please use the following language: “I give the sum of $_________ dollars to the Cape and Islands United Way for its general purposes without restriction.” (Alternately, you may wish to stipulate a percentage of your estate.)
We are happy to work with you, your family, and your advisers on a confidential basis to ensure a future gift that meets your needs. For more information about making a bequest, donating life insurance, or funding a charitable gift annuity, please contact Mark Skala.
