Planned Giving Via Will Or Trust

Types of Gifts through a Will or Living Trust

Through your will or living trust, you can ensure that some or all of your assets will come to Harley’s Dream. These are several types of bequests:

  • A specific bequest is a specified dollar amount, or specific asset, designated in your will or living trust as a gift to Harley’s Dream.

  • A residuary bequest designates that a specific percentage of your estate, or all, is transferred to Harley’s Dream after payment of all other distributions, including debts, taxes, expenses and other bequests, have been made.

  • A contingent bequest specifies that your estate, or a portion of it, passes to Harley’s Dream only if your other named beneficiary(ies) predeceases you.
