Create a Legacy Gift
A legacy gift is a powerful expression of your values, a way to extend your compassion beyond your lifetime. It allows you to make a difference without affecting your current financial situation, and in many cases, it can provide tax benefits to your estate.
​
When you leave a legacy to MaterCare International, you join a community of supporters dedicated to building a future where maternal health care is accessible, safe, and dignified for all.
There are several meaningful ways you can create a legacy gift to MaterCare International:
1. A Bequest in Your Will
You can designate a specific amount, a percentage of your estate, or the residue (what remains after other gifts and expenses) to MaterCare International.
Sample Clause: I give, devise and bequeath to MaterCare International, Registered Charity No. 87426 6943 RR0001, ___% of the residue of my estate to be used for any purpose(s) that the charity chooses for the fulfilment of its objectives.
A bequest is one of the simplest and most flexible ways to make a future gift that costs you nothing today.
2. A Gift of Life Insurance
By naming MaterCare International as the beneficiary or owner of a new or existing life insurance policy, you can create a lasting legacy at a relatively modest cost. This option allows you to make a larger gift than might be possible during your lifetime, while also offering potential tax benefits.
3. A Gift of Securities or Investments
Donating publicly traded stocks, mutual funds, or other securities can offer significant tax advantages while making a powerful impact on MaterCare’s mission. Gifts of appreciated securities can eliminate capital gains tax and provide an immediate charitable tax receipt.
Every legacy gift, no matter the size, helps us continue our mission of serving mothers and babies with dignity, respect, and love. Your gift becomes part of a lasting story of hope, transforming the lives of those most in need.
If you are considering creating a legacy gift or would like to discuss your options, we encourage you to speak with your legal or financial advisor. We would also be honoured to talk with you directly about how your legacy can make a lasting difference.
