Remebering Save-the-Redwoods League in Your Will
Charitable giving through your estate plans can offer both flexibility
and estate tax advantages. Please let us know if you have planned a gift
for the League. We look forward to welcoming you to the Redwood
Legacy Circle.
Four of the most popular forms of bequests are listed below.
1. A fixed amount of money or a designated property (sample language)
"I give $_______________________________________(or describe the
real or personal property, including exact location.) to Save-the-Redwoods
League, a California nonprofit corporation, currently located at 114 Sansome
Street, Room 1200, San Francisco, California 94104. Tax identification
number 94-0843915."
2. A percentage of the residue of the estate (sample language)

3. A residual bequest (sample language)

4. A double-purpose bequest
You can provide a relative or friend with income for life through a special
gift to Save-the-Redwoods League. You can do this by establishing a charitable
trust through your will. Upon your death, the trust pays income to the
person you designate. After that person's death, whatever remains in the
trust passes to Save-the-Redwoods League.
