Leave a legacy
Remembering WGSF in your Will is one of the most personal ways you can support our work. Any gift, large or small, plays a vital role in our work and will make a real difference to the lives of young people within the Foundation.
There are several ways you can choose to remember WGSF in your Will:
- Residuary legacy: once family and friends have been provided for, the remainder of a percentage of your estate is donated.
- Pecuniary legacy: a fixed sum of money.
- Specific: a specific or in-kind bequest (for instance, property, stocks and shares, works of art or antiques).
However you decide to remember WGSF, we will endeavour to follow your wishes and intentions wherever possible.
We always recommend that you take professional advice from a solicitor to ensure the legacy meets your personal circumstances.
If you would like to discuss remembering WGSF in your Will, please contact the Development Office.
