Different ways to leave a legacy
Residuary Bequest
This is a gift of the remainder (or a percentage of the remainder) of your estate after all other commitments, such as other bequests to your loved ones and taxes and debts, have been fulfilled.
This type of gift ensures your loved ones are cared for first, with the remaining portion supporting Eikon’s mission.
Pecuniary Bequest
This is a gift of a fixed sum of money specified in your Will.
It’s straightforward and allows you to specify an exact amount to support our programs and services.
Specific Bequest
This is a gift of a particular item of value, such as property, stocks, or personal possessions.
It allows you to donate assets that may be of significant value to our charity while potentially offering tax benefits to your estate.
