Wills Bequests - Qurbani Foundation

Wills and Bequests

You can provide for orphan kids through your will, and make a difference that will last a lifetime.

For an orphan kid without a family, there is no such thing as an inheritance… no nest egg passed from generation to generation. But through your legacy, our kids will know that someone remembered them… and did plan for their future by funding programs that will keep them off the streets for good.

Making a gift through your will is an excellent choice if you want to have a lasting impact on the lives of homeless kids long after you are gone, but wish to maintain liquidity and use of your assets during your lifetime. And the full amount of your gift is deductible from your taxable estate.

A bequest can be unrestricted, enabling Covenant House to direct your funds where future need is greatest, or restricted for a particular program or Covenant House location.

The following language may be helpful:

Example of unrestricted bequest language:

I give (insert dollar amount, property to be given, percentage of the estate, or “the remainder of my estate”) to Qurbani Foundation, a nonprofit corporation, tax identification number 13-2725416, headquartered at 788 Nugget Ave, Toronto, ON, M1S 4G3 for its general use and purposes.

Example of restricted bequest language:

If you include Qurbani Foundation in your will, please let us know so that we can thank you appropriately. You will also be eligible for membership in the Qurbani Foundation, a group of individuals who have made a significant contribution to help our orphan kids.
