Leave a Gift in Your Will
To include a gift to the Lagoon Society in your will, follow these three simple steps:
Step 1: We recommend you seek professional help from a legal advisor with experience preparing wills to ensure wishes are honoured.
Step 2: It’s important to include our full name and charity number in your will. Without this, we may not receive your gift:
- Legal name: Ruby Lake Lagoon Nature Reserve Society
- Charitable registration number: 85237 7530 RR0001
Step 3: We recommend you share the following clause with your legal advisor: “I give all or (enter a portion or amount) of the residue of my estate, a specific cash legacy, or a specific asset, to Ruby Lake Lagoon Nature Reserve Society charitable registration number 85237 7530 RR0001. I request that funds be used for the highest priority need.”
We are here to help. For more information about creating a gift in your will, and donating RRSPs, RRIFs or Life Insurance, please contact us!
