Make a Gift Through Your Will or Living Trust

One simple and flexible way to ensure that your legacy of supporting affordable homeownership continues for years to come is by making a gift in your will or living trust, known as a charitable bequest. You may share the suggested language below with your attorney:

I hereby bequeath to Fort Collins Habitat for Humanity (Federal Tax ID# 84-1217901) –a charitable organization duly existing under the laws of Colorado and located in Fort Collins, Colorado  ___% of the remainder of my estate [or $__ , if specific amount] to be used in the areas of greatest need as the board of directors may determine.
