Bequests and Trusts

You can leave SHARE money in your will in several ways:

  • Specify a dollar amount
  • Designate a percentage of your estate to be given through your will or living trust.
  • Give only what is left after all your bequests to loved ones have been made (the "residual").
  • Provide for a gift of stocks or other securities.
  • It is also possible to name SHARE as a contingent beneficiary of your estate in the eventuality that your named beneficiary is no longer alive at the time your will is probated.

Sample bequest language:

"I give and bequeath to SHARE: Self-help for Women with Breast or Ovarian Cancer,  presently located at 1501 Broadway, Suite 704A, New York, NY 10036, the sum of $___, to be used for breast or ovarian cancer support."

Federal Tax ID # 13-3131914

If you don't need help in your planning and do include SHARE, please let Judy know so we can thank you.

We encourage you to consult with your legal and financial advisors when considering a planned gift.
