A simple, flexible and versatile way to ensure the AGA Research Foundation can continue to help spark the scientific breakthroughs of today so clinicians will have the tools to improve care tomorrow is through a gift in your will or living trust, known as a charitable bequest.

To make a charitable bequest, you need a current will or living trust. Your gift can be made as a percentage of your estate. Or you can make a specific bequest by giving a certain amount of cash, securities or property. After your lifetime, the Foundation receives your gift.

Including the AGA Research Foundation in your will is a popular gift to give because it is:

• Affordable. The actual giving of your gift occurs after your lifetime, so your current income is not affected.

• Flexible. Until your will goes into effect, you are free to alter your plans or change your mind.

• Versatile. You can give a specific item, a set amount of money or a percentage of your estate. You can also make your gift contingent upon certain events.

We hope you’ll consider including a gift to the AGA Research Foundation in your will or liv-ing trust. It’s simple – just a few sentences in your will or trust are all that is needed. The official bequest language for the AGA Research Foundation is: “I, [name], of [city, state, ZIP], give, devise and bequeath to the AGA Research Foundation [written amount or per-centage of the estate or description of property] for its unrestricted use and purpose.”

By including a gift to the AGA Research Foundation in your will, you can help fill the funding gap and protect the next generation of investigators.
