Wills and How to Make a Bequest

If you consider the work the Rainbow New Zealand Charitable Trust does important, you can continue to help even once you have gone to the end of the Rainbow! Your Will can easily be made or updated to donate a particular amount of money, or the remaining funds after distributions to other beneficiaries, or any kind of property or asset that could be sold.

You can make a general bequest or you can specify which of the Trust’s Grant programmes you’d like the money to go to (Scholarships, Community or Pride) and we will use your bequest to build our capital base from which we can generate investment income while preserving the original capital you provided.

The following are example clauses for you to consider. They are only a guide, and we recommend that you consult with your lawyer to see if the example clauses work with the wording of your Will. If you would like us to recommend a ‘Rainbow friendly’ lawyer, please contact us.
