Pass on your passion for safer streets for all Idahoans through a bequest of money, securities or personal property. Legacy gifts ensure the future success of Idaho Walk Bike Alliance by building up the sustainability of our efforts. The money bequeathed by generous individuals such as yourself finances future work and keeps generations of pedestrians and bicyclists safer.
Gifts Through Your Will
Bequests are as simple as including the following language in your will:
Unconditional Bequest:
“I hereby bequeath to Idaho Walk Bike Alliance, a nonprofit charitable bicyclist and pedestrian safety organization with headquarters at 280 N. 8th St, Boise, ID, the sum of $____ to be used for “—“
Conditional Bequest:
“I hereby bequeath to Idaho Walk Bike Alliance, a nonprofit charitable bicyclist and pedestrian safety organization with headquarters at 280 N. 8th Street, Boise, Idaho, the sum of $____ to be used for the specific purpose of _____; however, if in any event the specific purpose should no longer be necessary or appropriate, I give the Board of Directors the authority to use the sum of money however it deems best.”
Residue Bequest
“I hereby bequeath to Idaho Walk Bike Alliance, a nonprofit charitable bicyclist and pedestrian safety organization with headquarters at 280 N. 8th Street, Boise, Idaho, after specific bequests have been fulfilled, all of the rest of and remainder portions of my estate and property, real and personal, to be placed in the Idaho Walk Bike Alliance *growth fund*.
To Bequeath securities and personal property, simply substitute in place of “the sum of $___” in your will, both 1) the name of the securities or of the personal property, and 2) the number of shares or other descriptors (such as real estate address, artist’s name, serial numbers and so on). Appreciated securities bring even greater benefit by dramatically reducing the capital gains taxes to you and your estate.
