Bequests

A bequest or legacy is simply a gift in your Will - a memento or sum of money you want to leave to a friend, your Church, or a favourite charity like the Institute. Such a consideration could give us the chance to help the blind and visually impaired lead a useful and independent life.

Discount on estate tax
Bequests made to the Institute for the Blind are allowed as a discount according to and liable to the stipulations of Article 4(h) (i) and (ii) of the Estate Tax Law (Law 45 of 1955) when calculating estate tax.

How to manage a bequest
You may leave a specific amount, a percentage or the remainder of your estate to the Institute.  Please consult your attorney or a bank official for assistance with this.

Add the following codicil to your Will:
I bequeth the amount of R________, or property, percentage of the estate or remainder to  the Institute for the Blind,  P. O. Box 933, Worcester, 6849.
