Learn how to make Kosair Charities part of your planned giving.
Wills & Bequests
Estate planning, including a will, can help you make the most of your estate while providing for loved ones and charities important to you. Federal laws make provisions for various means of helping charitable organizations and may be financially beneficial to you and your heirs.
Importance of a Will
A will allows you to decide how your estate will be distributed. People with possessions, no matter how many or how few, should designate who should receive them. If you have a home, business, or other substantial property a will is even more important. By having a will you will avoid certain expenses and delays, even for smaller estates. Everyone should have a will.
