How to Add a Charity to Your Will in One Sentence
Want to support a cause you care about—without writing a big check today?
Add a charity to your will. It really does take just one sentence.
“I leave $1,000 or 5% of my estate to my favorite charity.”
Done.
You can leave a specific dollar amount…
A percentage of your estate…
Or whatever’s left after your family and friends are cared for.
Any amount makes a difference.
Pro tip: Visit the charity’s website and look for “planned giving” or “leave a legacy.” They’ll have the exact legal language you need—just copy and paste.
No pressure. No cost today. No fundraising calls.
Just a quiet way to support what matters to you.
One sentence in your will.
A lifetime of impact.
And a legacy of kindness.
