LEGACY
GIFTS
GIVE A GIFT THAT WILL IMPACT
FUTURE GENERATIONS
We all worry about the future. By entrusting a piece of your legacy to Mazon Canada through a gift in your will, you extend the power of your philanthropy well beyond your lifetime -- nourishing the next generation as we chart a course towards a hunger-free future.
THE BENEFITS OF LEAVING A LEGACY
-
IT'S EASY: The gift does not cost you anything now
-
IT'S LASTING: You can support hungry Canadians into the future
-
IT'S FLEXIBLE: You can still make changes to your will at any time
-
IT DOES NOT HAVE TO AFFECT YOUR CHILDREN'S INHERITANCE: Because of Canada’s tax regulations, you can give money to a charity that you would otherwise give to Canada Revenue Agency in taxes - not the money you are leaving for your loved ones.
THERE ARE SEVERAL WAYS TO LEAVE A GIFT FOR MAZON IN YOUR WILL:
-
Leave a specific dollar amount;
-
Leave a residual request by sharing the remainder of your estate after other payments have occurred;
-
Leave a contingent bequest by sharing a part of your estate after your other beneficiaries have passed.
The needs of today may not be the same as those of tomorrow. By leaving an unrestricted legacy gift, you will ensure that your gift will be used where need is greatest and reach those communities that need it most without delay.
If you wish to discuss your vision and values to be sure the gift is spent with them in mind, please contact our Executive Director, Izzy Waxman at izzy@mazoncanada.ca to arrange a conversation.
