 Remember the Adirondack Council in Your Will

Gifts to the Adirondack Council through your will are not subject to federal estate and the inheritance taxes of most states. Such gifts, or bequests, can take different forms.

Specific Bequest: You designate the Council to receive a specific dollar amount or percentage of your estate, whether in cash, securities or other property.

Residuary Bequest: You name the Council to receive all or a specified percentage of the assets remaining in your estate after other expenses and bequests have been paid.

Contingent Bequest: You direct that a specific amount or a percentage of your estate be paid to the Council only if your other beneficiaries do not survive you. (A contingent request can be made without taking away from your family in any way.)

Remainder Bequest: You direct that a sum be placed aside and invested to pay income to a surviving spouse or child. Afterwards the remaining principal goes to the Council.

Memorial Bequest: You establish a fund in the memory of your spouse or other family members, or friend.

The Adirondack Council recommends that you consult an attorney
to prepare or revise your will.
