Will Changing the Course of Cancer be Part of Your Legacy?
A gift in your Will is an investment in a world free of cancer. Your decision to leave a bequest to CancerCare Manitoba Foundation is a powerful opportunity to help change the course of cancer in Manitoba. You may make your gift unrestricted, to the area of greatest need – and greatest promise. You may also designate your gift to be used in any of the following areas:
- Research
- Clinical Trials
- Patient Treatment and Care
- Prevention and Early Detection
A gift in your Will perpetuates your values, beliefs and brings to life your desire to make a difference for others. It is an act of hope and determination. Legacy gifts come in many forms:
- Make a gift in your Will for a specific amount or property (e.g. securities, jewellery, artwork)
- Bequest for a percentage of the residue of your estate (e.g. I give 15% of the residue of my estate to CancerCare Manitoba Foundation for…)
- Designate CancerCare Manitoba Foundation as the beneficiary of a life insurance policy, RRSP, or RRIF
- Donate an existing life insurance policy
- A bequest provision that is contingent on another event. For example, in the event that any or all of my beneficiaries’ pre-decease me, their portion of my estate is to go to
CancerCare Manitoba Foundation for… - Other
We welcome the opportunity to discuss with you today what your generosity will make possible tomorrow. To speak in more detail about the difference your bequest will make please contact Janice Feuer, Chief Development Officer at 204-787-2163, or email jfeuer@cancercare.mb.ca.
