Leave A Gift In Your Will
Your Legacy. Your Impact.
Your legacy is an important part of your life’s work. Your impact develops from a life dedicated to living your values, finding purpose, and your hopes for the future. Leaving a gift to the Mental Health Foundation of Nova Scotia is more than just a way to have a long-lasting impact for Nova Scotians living with mental health challenges and addiction – it is a promise to provide hope in the future.
When including a gift in your will to the Mental Health Foundation of Nova Scotia, you maintain control of your assets during your lifetime. There are several types of bequests including a cash gift, securities, property, or even a percentage of your estate. This flexibility allows you to look after your loved ones and your estate receives a charitable tax receipt that can decrease estate taxes.
Gifts in wills are the most common and simplest way to leave a legacy for a charity that is meaningful to you.
