Donate Using Last Will And Testament - Leave A Legacy

Charitable Bequests

A charitable bequest is simply a distribution from your estate to a charitable organization through your last will and testament. There are different kinds of bequests. For each, you must use very specific language to indicate the precise direction of your assets, and to successfully carry out your final wishes. In any charitable bequest, be sure to name the recipient accurately. A bequest to The Cancer Society might go to national headquarters, when you meant it to go to the affiliate in your community.

Do you have an estate?

Your estate is the sum of your assets, including property you own, insurance policies, retirement accounts, cash on hand, etc. Wealthy people may have very large estates, but even people who aren't wealthy often have the resources to make a charitable bequest. If every adult in America made a will and included a bequest of just $100, billions of dollars would flow to charitable causes every year.

Below, we have listed some of the more common kinds of bequests, and some bequest language. We always recommend that you carefully review the terms of your will with a professional trained in handling trusts and estates.

General Bequests are legacies left to certain people or causes that come from the general value of the estate, and are made by designating a specific dollar amount, a particular asset or a fixed percentage of your estate to the cause of your choice.

General bequest language:
"I give, devise, and bequeath to VETERAN TICKETS FOUNDATION, the sum of $________(or a description of the specific asset), for the benefit of VETERAN TICKETS FOUNDATION and its general purposes."

Specific Bequests are made when a particular item or property is bequeathed for a designated purpose. (i.e., instruments bequeathed to the local school district for use in music education; dollar funds to be used in the operation of a school or church.)

Specific bequest language:
"I give, devise, and bequeath to VETERAN TICKETS FOUNDATION, the sum of $_______ (or a description of a specific asset), for the benefit of VETERAN TICKETS FOUNDATION to be used for the following purpose: FULFILL HERO'S WISHES. If at any time in the judgment of the trustees of VETERAN TICKETS FOUNDATION it is impossible or impracticable to carry out exactly the designated purpose, they shall determine an alternative purpose closest to the designated purpose."

Residuary Bequests are made when you intend to leave the residue portion of your assets after other terms of the will have been satisfied.

Residuary bequest language:
"All the rest, residue, and remainder of my estate, both real and personal, I give to VETERAN TICKETS FOUNDATION, for its general purposes."

Contingency Bequests allow you to leave a portion of your estate to a particular charity if your named beneficiary does not survive you.

Contingency bequest language:
"I devise and bequeath the residue of the property, real and personal and wherever situated, owned by me at my death, to (name of beneficiary), if (she/he) survives me. If (name of beneficiary) does not survive me, I devise and bequeath my residuary estate to VETERAN TICKETS FOUNDATION, for its general purposes."

Without a will, there is no mechanism in place to make a bequest, so here are the steps you should take to make sure your wishes are granted.

Make a list of organizations or causes that you would like to support.
Make a detailed list of your assets (financial, real estate, vehicles, jewelry, collectibles, musical instruments, etc.)
Set up an appointment with your financial analyst or attorney, or planned giving officer at the organization you intend to support. These professionals will help sensitively guide you through the process.

Look at the license plate of the car parked next to you at work. You may find the individual is a Purple Heart recipient or simply a Veteran of the Armed Forces.

Stop by a local recruiting station, nursing home, VFW, or American Legion and simply say "Thanks".

Gold Star Family - WrestleMania 42

My name is Rosemary, an Army veteran and the widow of Army SSG Jeremy A. Brown. Jeremy was killed in action on July 3, 2005, while deployed in Mosul, Iraq. At the time, he had just begun our third consecutive deployment to Iraq since we were married. Our married life was defined by service to our country. While Jeremy was completing his first deployment, I arrived to start mine — passing each other in Kuwait by a single day. When I returned home, he was deployed again. We celebrated our marriage with a big family wedding during his two-week R&R, but we never had the chance to take a honeymoon or share a family vacation together. I have remained unmarried for the past 20 years, and have a son who is 19. He is a wonderful young man and a devoted WWE fan. My wish is to share with him a special experience we will both cherish — attending WrestleMania 42 in Las Vegas, Nevada. Specifically, I am requesting two 2-day tickets so that we can enjoy this once-in-a-lifetime event together. This would not only fulfill a dream for my son but also honor the life and sacrifices that have shaped our family’s journey.

Treefort Music Festival

I would like to get tickets for my daughter and I to go to the Treefort Music Festival in Boise, Idaho, from 25 to 29 March 2026. We are big fans of live music and would love to get five-day passes to attend, especially if they are the zipline passes, so we can get into every event, no matter the crowd. I would like this wish granted because my daughter and I love to go to concerts together, but it is difficult to justify spending money on entertainment like this when we don't have much. Soon after returning home, we had flooding in the house causing extensive damage in three rooms and other areas such as closets and part of the garage. Insurance is covering a lot, but not everything. If that didn't take all of our extra funds, there has been multiple repairs needed on vehicles that have taken the rest. We are good at budgeting and tightening belts when needed, and we will recover from the financial strain, but expensive festival tickets are not in the budget right now.

A family trip to Disney World

My name is Chief Petty Officer Seth Jones, and I have proudly served in the U.S. Navy for 17 years. Serving this country is not just my duty, it’s my passion. I have defended freedom, protected the front lines, led multiple units in unfamiliar territories, and stepped in wherever needed. But this calling has come at a hefty cost. I am blessed with a wonderful wife who has carried the weight of being both mom and dad during my nine deployments in serving the Red, White, and Blue. She has been the rock for our three daughters Mersadies (19), Neveah (15), and Violet (12). They left the comfort of family in Utah to hold down the fort in Southern California. None of us could have imagined just how many nights they would spend without me. It wasn’t only deployments when I missed days at home, I was often away on training, courses, or temporary assignments, leaving my chair empty at the table. Since enlisting, I have missed more moments than I can count, moments I once swore I would never let slip away. Birthdays, holidays, first days of school, last days of school, sporting events, family dinners where my seat sat empty night after night. I’ve missed blowing out candles, hearing about new adventures and fears, cheering from the sidelines, consoling scraped knees, and tucking my girls in at night. Many of those moments slipped by while I was across the world in another time zone, others while I was tied up with training or orders that shifted at the last second. Even when I tried to make it home for something special, duty always seemed to have other plans. In those early years, between 2008 and 2012, I experienced their birthdays, first days of school, and holidays only through photos and grainy video calls sometimes with lag, dropped connections, or just a blurry screen. As technology improved, I could finally see the events in real time, but it only reminded me more painfully of what I was missing. Over time, the missed school performances and sporting events chipped away at the closeness of our family. For the last four years, we’ve been searching for something to bring us back together to reignite the fire and rebuild the bond stretched thin by distance and time apart. A family trip to Disney World would mean the world to us. The ultimate dream come true would be the five of us, my wife and I and our three daughters experiencing that magic. It would be a chance to create a memory together that doesn’t need to be retold later. Thank you for considering my wish and giving me the chance to hope that, maybe this time, I won’t have to miss out. A dad who just wants to be “in the room where it happens” with his family.

Disney World vacation with my family

Hello, we are the Powell Family. I am Daniel, an E-7 Chief Boatswain Mate in the United States Coast Guard, currently serving my second tour overseas in Bahrain as part of Patrol Forces Southwest Asia. I am married to my loving wife, Daisy, and blessed with two amazing children, Delano and Desmin, who are 9 and 11 years old. While my work is challenging and rewarding, I believe my family shoulders the greatest burden: my children being without their father for a total of two and a half years during my deployments, and most importantly, my wife, who is currently in remission from lymphoma. Her courage, resilience, and strength in managing our household during my absence inspire me every day. Our wish is to create lasting family memories by visiting Disney World upon my return from deployment. We are respectfully requesting assistance in obtaining multi day park hopper plus tickets for my family. This experience would not only be a dream come true for our children but also serve as a much-needed morale boost for my wife and our entire family after these challenging few years.

Park Hopper Passes to Walt Disney World

Hello! My name is Nathan. I am an 11 year veteran on my way home from my second tour. I am writing this in hopes of you being able to help my family create new memories and make up for lost time in a trip to Disney World. Every service member knows that being a parent while deployed isn’t exactly easy. For me, hearing my two boys wonder where I am and ask when I am coming home is always so difficult, especially around their birthdays. I wasn’t able to make it home for the birth of my second child last deployment. This deployment I lost my grandfather this summer and wasn’t able to attend his funeral. This compounded a lot of stress on my family and I, but have made it thus far. My wife, Mary, is the rock in our marriage; a retired veteran after 22 years of dedicated service and a mother of two handsome boys, has worked tirelessly to get our kids to summer camp and to keep them happy and healthy while I’m deployed, as well as taking over my chores as well. For my Hero’s Wish, I am asking you to help me get our family 4 Park Hopper Passes to Walt Disney World. This isn’t just a wish for me, this wish is for my wife who held this family together and for my kids to have breakfast with their favorite Disney characters.
