Did you know you can leave a lasting legacy for our shelter by including the Etobicoke Humane Society (EHS) in your estate planning?
We recently received a significant donation from the late Mr. Henri Dussault, who had named EHS as a beneficiary in his estate. His gift totalled close to $90,000, a substantial donation that can go a long way toward caring for our cats and dogs.
We’re very thankful to Mr. Dussault for thinking of EHS when he was making his estate plans. Legacy gifts, like this one, are very special donations. We always feel honoured that a supporter thought of us and our shelter pets.
Who can leave a legacy gift to EHS
There’s a misconception that only large estates can leave charitable bequests. In fact, anyone can choose to include their favourite charity as a beneficiary, and gifts of any size can have an impact. If you’d like to leave a lasting gift to EHS, there are many ways to do it when planning your estate. To ensure everything is done correctly, it’s best to consult with an estate lawyer or a financial expert. This can help avoid any complications when the estate is being settled.
Ways to include EHS in your estate
There are different ways to leave a legacy gift through your estate. These include:
By taking a moment to include EHS in your will or estate plan, you’ll be leaving a gift that will help care for future dogs and cats that need a second chance at happiness.
If you’ve already included EHS in your estate plan, let us know! We would love an opportunity to thank you in advance for your generosity.
