Gifts in Will

Have you considered leaving a gift in your Will to Icon Cancer Foundation?

A gift in your Will can change the future of cancer research. You will be leaving a legacy for future generations.

After caring for loved ones in your Will, you may consider leaving part of your estate to a charity of your choice.

Every gift, no matter how large or small, plays a vital role in funding our vital research.

There are different ways you can leave a gift in your Will:

  • Residual Gift – With this type of gift, Icon Cancer Foundation receives the remainder of your estate after those specifically named in your Will have been provided for.
  • Percentage Gift – This can be any percentage of your total estate up to 100 per cent. This type of gift enables you to share your estate among several people or organisations without specifying the property or amounts. This means the gift isn’t affected by changes to your estate over time.
  • Specific Gift – This type of gift enables you to leave a specific cash amount or other asset to Icon Cancer Foundation.
  • Pecuniary Gift – This is a gift of a fixed sum of money made to Icon Cancer Foundation. It does not include assets.
  • Whole Gift – This type of gift is where you leave your entire estate to Icon Cancer Foundation, which is usually when there is no other family or friends that you would like to leave a gift to.

It’s important that you speak with a solicitor when including a gift in your Will.

Please find below some wording you may wish to provide your solicitor.
