We all cherish our wealth in life, and do our utmost to ensure it is well managed even after we leave this world. Leaving a gift to World Vision in your will is an opportunity for you to change the lives of children and communities for generations to come. You can also give yourself peace of mind and ease the burden on your loved ones. The best and easiest way is to seek professional assistance from solicitors or other relevant bodies in providing will-drafting services, and let your family know about your will. Regardless of the amount, every legacy donation can create life-transformational changes for children and families in need.
“Through World Vision’s network, resources are allocated to areas we cannot reach, addressing the issue of global wealth inequality which leads to poverty.”
"Education is the right of every child,
but it’s hard to fulfill with limited resources. Supporting World Vision's works can provide resources, achieve poverty alleviation and sustainable development for many needed families and communities."
“‘Do no evil, do all good.’ According to my ability, I have selected 20 charitable organisations this time, hoping to add 20 more in the future.”
"As a non-Christian, I have supported
World Vision for many years and have recently learned from from their newsletter
about a talk on will-writing and legacy giving. I joined this meaningful event and
made a will application plus donating a portion of my estate to my supporting
organisation. I hope to leave a legacy of goodness after my passing."
"Though
I am not very familiar with looking after children, I believe healthy
growth of children is crucial for the society and the world’s future. I’ve
been supporting World Vision's Child Sponsorship programme through sponsoring
10 children over the past decade. I also plan to donate a portion of my estate
to World Vision, truly hope their programme can help more children in need.”
“Children could have unlimited possibilities and endless potential, if we provide them with proper nourishment to unleash it.
What we may consider as insignificant resources could be a life-changing opportunity for children living in difficult circumstances.
Spreading messages of hope makes people live happier!”
It is a gift of a specific sum of money, decided by you at the time you write or alter your will.
A specific bequest is a gift of a particular item(s) of assets (for example, an apartment, shares, etc.).
Donate all or part of the reminder or residue of your estate after all other gifts, taxes and debts have been paid out.
Letting World Vision be one of your policy beneficiaries, it is a gift of a certain proportion (minimum 1%) of benefit from life insurance.
If you endorse World Vision’s work and effort, and are willing to support our long-term operation, you may consult your lawyers for advice on how to draw up your Will; or, you may contact your insurance agent to change your policy beneficiary.
