WILLS AND BEQUESTS

Your Impact

Philanthropy is a reflection of your values and of your legacy. Its importance grows as you age, build and establish your life, and contemplate your future.

By naming BC Women’s Health Foundation in your will, you are continuing the fight for inequitable healthcare.

You are funding women’s health research. You are supporting the capital projects, programs, and equipment of BC Women’s Hospital. You are advocating for women’s health issues. When a woman flourishes, so too will a family, a community and entire societies. It is a beautiful, exponential ripple effect.

Types of Investments

By leaving a legacy gift in your will, you declare that you believe in a future where every woman is seen and heard by the healthcare system. Your generous, tax-wise investments may be made with a bequest, through a gift of designated retirement funds, or as part of a structured estate plan.

Take the First Step

It’s simple. Whether or not you already have a will, the easiest way to include a gift in your will is with assistance from a professional, such as an attorney specializing in wills, a legal advisor, or a financial advisor.

You can find simple will language below (downloadable PDF) that will ensure your donation is used as you intend. You can make an unrestricted gift that offers us the flexibility to use your funding where you may leave the most lasting legacy.

Get in Touch

Be sure to get in touch if you have included a gift in your will. It will give us the opportunity to thank you for your legacy, and discuss what you hope your gift will help us accomplish. We always respect your privacy and confidentiality.
