Including a gift in your Will to the Galiano Health Care Society can be done by using the sample bequest wording below:

Unrestricted Residual Bequest

I direct my Executors to give ______% of the residue of my Estate to The Galiano Health Care Society for use where it is needed most as determined in the absolute discretion of the Galiano Health Care Society.

Unrestricted Specific Bequest

I direct my Executors to give to The Galiano Health Care Society the sum of $_____ to be used where it is needed the most as determined in the absolute discretion of the Galiano Health Care Society.

Restricted Bequest

I direct my Executors to give to The Galiano Health Care Society the sum of $_____ (or_____% of my residue) to be used for the purpose of _____________ , provided that in the event that circumstances make the specific use of this bequest no longer practical or desirable, the Galiano Health Care Society is hereby authorized to apply the bequest to other such purposes which conform as near as possible to the spirit and general intent of this bequest.

As our Health Care Society’s needs change significantly from year to year and medical advances impact our future needs, we advise that an “unrestricted” gift is made. However, if there are departments or programs in the Health Care Centre in which you are specifically interested, feel free to state these preferences in your will so that we may direct your gift according to your wishes.

Thank you for considering a Legacy Gift to the Galiano Health Care Society.

Good To Go Kit

If your situation is straightforward, you may be able to write your own Will using our Good To Go Kit. However, obtaining the assistance of a professional is always a good idea.
