Leave a conservation legacy for future generations in your will.

Consider EALT in your Will

Even a small amount can make a massive difference to our work. By including EALT in your Will, you can create a conservation legacy for this region. We recommend consulting with your legal and/or financial advisor before you do so.

Options for Donating to EALT in your Will

• Fixed Amount: Donate a fixed amount so that you know exactly how much you are donating.

• "Charity Child" or Percentage Gift: Leave a percentage of your estate to EALT, or structure your Will with a "charity child". For example, if you have three children, divide your estate into four portions, with three portions going to your children, and the fourth to EALT.

• Residue of Estate: You may offer the residue of your estate to EALT, that is, any funds that remain after all bills have been settled and inheritances have been allocated. This allows any obligations to be met with the remainder (or a portion) going to support EALT.

• Other Bequests: Donating securities, life insurance or RRSPs is another excellent way to support EALT. Check with your financial advisors or the Edmonton Community Foundation for further information.

Make the most of your legacy donation to EALT by donating to an endowment fund, or creating your own.

Edmonton Community Foundation also has a Wills Week initiative where they offer a series of free presentations that help Edmonton and area residents learn the value of creating and maintaining an up-to-date will.
