It is possible to give almost any kind of asset through a bequest, including a specific sum of money, a particular asset (including securities, property and tangible assets), a percentage of your total estate, or a percentage of the residue of your estate.
Below is a sample of wording for your Will should you decide to make a bequest (please discuss this with your legal advisor).
“I __________________give, devise and bequeath unto Blue Knot Foundation (ABN 49 072 260 005) for its general purposes free of all duties, the following: (whichever is applicable)
and I direct that the receipt of the Treasurer or other Proper Officer of Blue Knot Foundation for the time being thereof shall be sufficient discharge to my [Executor/Trustee] for the bequest.”
It is always best to consult with a lawyer before making your Will or codicil.
