Did you know you can leave a lasting legacy for generations to come?

Leaving a legacy in your will can leave a ‘gift of time’ for Jack & Jill children like Evie, pictured above with her mum Victoria and granny Carole in Dublin.

Evie has a rare condition which causes multiple daily seizures, and she needs ongoing care and support from Jack & Jill.

Mum Victoria says, “when our Jack & Jill nurse comes into the house, Evie’s eyes will just light up. They’ll play games, read stories and listen to music. Avril is really well trained with different types of epilepsy, so she understands Evie.”

Even a small gift can have a big impact, and if you are thinking of leaving a legacy in your will, you will be making a huge difference for future generations in your community.

For a private chat about legacies or making a will, feel free to contact Emma on 045 894 538 or email [email protected].

What are the main gifts I can leave in my will?

Contrary to overall public belief, making a will can often be a straightforward process. It really is a blessing to those left behind to have things in order and not have to deal with the time-consuming and distressing legalities when there is no will in place.

After looking after your loved ones, the following legacies can be made:

  • A Pecuniary Bequest: where by a fixed sum of money is left to your charity of choice.
  • A Residuary Bequest: whereby the whole or a percentage of your estate is left to your charity of choice.

If you have already made a will and wish to amend it to include a gift to The Jack & Jill Children’s Foundation, your solicitor will advise you about adding a simple addition (Codicil) which should not incur any major costs.

Do you have any pointers for making a will?

The purpose of a will is to ensure that when you are gone the property you own is distributed among those you love in accordance with your wishes.

To make a Will you will need:

  • To bring all your personal details to your solicitor together with those of your family, dependents and any charity or other person you wish to benefit.
  • To consider whom you appoint as your executor, this is the person who will make sure that your will is put into effect. An executor can benefit under the will so it can be a family member, should you wish.
  • To have an idea of what you own, your house or apartment, any bank accounts and anything else. Personal items can also be mentioned such as a piece of jewellery or pieces of furniture from your house. The preparing of such a list helps focus your mind on whom you wish to benefit under your will as this will make the job ultimately much simpler.

What should I say on my will?

Suggested wording for leaving a gift in your will:

“I give the sum of € [Insert amount in figures][Insert amount in words] to The Jack & Jill Foundation of Johnstown Manor, Johnstown, Naas, Co Kildare, Ireland (Registered Charity Number: 20036201) for the general purposes of the said Charity.

The receipt of the appropriate officer of the said Charity shall be sufficient receipt to my Executors for payment of this legacy.”

Thank you for raising valued funds for The Jack & Jill Children's Foundation
