Bequests: Gifts Made Through Your Living Will or Trust

 

You can join supporters who have made the thoughtful decision to support CASA Contra Costa County through their estate plans. Making these plans means that the services and programs that you have supported in your lifetime will continue to touch the thousands of seniors for years to come. It means you have a choice as to how your assets will be used, well into the future.


 

Naming CASA Contra Costa County in Your Will

 

You can make a gift to CASA Contra Costa County in your will by designating a specific dollar amount, a percentage of the estate, or a percentage of the remaining part of the estate (residual) after other distributions are made. You can make this decision at any time. If you do not have a will written yet, or have not reviewed it lately, these are excellent reasons to create or modify your will and discuss this potential sample language with your attorney:


"I give, bequeath, and devise (all or ____ percent of) the rest, residue and remainder of the property, both real and personal, wherever situated, which I may own or be entitled to at my death, to CASA Contra Costa County to be used for its general purposes."
