Leaving Your LegacyIncluding a gift to ARRL in your estate plans is a simple way to build the ARRL Endowment. There are several ways to name ARRL as a benefi ciary – the simplest way to make a planned gift to ARRL is to make a bequest in your Will.

Specifi c Bequest Designate a specifi c dollar amount, specifi c percentage, or specifi c property to ARRL.

Residual Bequest Designate ARRL as the benefi ciary of your residual estate. This would provide that, after all debts, taxes, expenses and specifi c bequests have been paid, the remaining amount, or residual estate, is transferred to ARRL.

Contingent Bequest If a named benefi ciary listed in your Will predeceases you as of the date of your death, that portion of your estate that was specifi ed for that benefi ciary passes to ARRL.
