Leaving a gift in your will to Rebuild East Midlands offers survivors of modern slavery the opportunity to rebuild their lives, providing a future free of exploitation.
Legacies are an important source of income and are valuable gifts to charities like Rebuild East Midlands. If you feel passionately about human rights and the need for people to live with freedom, security and hope, you can make a lasting difference to individuals who have previously been denied these things.
Once you have made provisions for your loved ones, you may want to consider leaving a gift to Rebuild.
If you would like a conversation with us about our strategy and plans for the future, please get in touch as we would be happy to share our aims and goals with you.
Any legal document should be written on the advice of a lawyer, so please seek professional support.
1.What type of legacy gift to include
Specific: a particular item eg a ring, antique, house
Pecuniary: a gift of a specific amount of money
Residuary: a proportion of what is left after all debts are paid and other gifts made
2.How you would like the gift to be used
A general gift means that Rebuild East Midlands can put it towards areas of greatest need at that time. This could be delivering support, developing training resources for businesses and community groups, organising groups and activities for the people we support, or spend on vital core costs such rent, IT equipment, subscriptions and so on. Some people choose to leave their legacy to be spent on something specific, which is known as a restricted gift.
3.Talk to your solicitor who can advise and write your wishes into your will.
