Dear Financial Planner or Trust and Estate Attorney:
The IAHV Generosity Department is happy to work with you in crafting bequest wording for wills and trusts that meets your clients’ philanthropic intentions. Most donors simply use our standard Bequest Language as follows,
“I give to the International Association for Human Values (IAHV), a nonprofit corporation with its principal office currently located in Washington, DC, Federal Tax ID 52-2178069, or its successor, ______________* [_______ percentage, remainder or specific amount after all other expenses are settled] for its SKY Schools program or current program serving youth, without further restrictions on use and charitable purposes.”
"We supported SKY Schools because of the incredible people delivering the services. SKY Schools is a solution; a prerequisite foundational initiative that creates an environment for kids to relax and find themselves so they can own and be on their pathway."
