Bequest language

Planning for the future and creating the legacy you wish to leave is one of the most effective ways to assure a lasting impact. Making a gift in your will or living trust, known as a bequest, can help your legacy endure. Your gift may be a specific dollar amount, a percentage of your estate or the remainder after all other provisions are specified.

Below is suggested language to use when drafting your bequest.

Sample language


For an unrestricted gift that allows Tidelands Health to determine how to use the funds based on our most pressing needs, use the following language for your will and/or trust:

"I give to Tidelands Health, a not-for-profit organization currently located at PO Box 421718, Georgetown SC 29442, or its successor thereto, _________ [written amount or percentage of the estate or description of property] for its unrestricted charitable use and purpose."

To designate your provision for a particular purpose:

"I give to Tidelands Health, a not-for-profit organization currently located at PO Box 421718, Georgetown SC 29442, or its successor thereto, _________ [written amount or percentage of the estate or description of property]. This gift should be used for (state purpose) if and so long as Tidelands Health determines that the need exists. If Tidelands Health shall determine at the outset or at a later time that the need does not exist or no longer exists or for some reason it is not possible (or prudent) to administer my gift as originally intended, then Tidelands Health may, in its sole and uncontrolled discretion, direct the use of my bequest for a purpose related as closely as possible to that stated above."
