What is LEAVE A LEGACY™?
Almost
everyone has a favourite charity. The reasons why a charity is close to
your heart are as varied as the charities themselves. LEAVE A LEGACY™
is a public awareness campaign that promotes the benefits of leaving a
bequest in your will to help your favourite charitable organization.
The LEAVE A LEGACY™ program provides information on how you can
support charities through estate planning. This program is a partnership
between registered charitable organizations, allied professionals, the
media and the public. Leave a Legacy has recently been adopted as the
national program of the Canadian
Association of Gift Planners (CAGP®).
The aim of LEAVE A LEGACY™ is two-fold:
(1) Ensure every adult in Canada has an up-to-date will; and
(2) Encourage individuals to leave a gift for their favourite not-for-profit
organizations in their will.
The vision of LEAVE A LEGACY™ is to ensure every Nova Scotian is
aware of the personal and financial benefits of leaving a gift for their
charities of choice in their will. Preparing an estate plan that includes
a charitable gift provides tremendous personal satisfaction and significant
tax benefits for donors.
Everyone benefits from LEAVE A LEGACY™ – the individual, the
family and the community. Whatever your reasons – your gift makes
a difference!
