Bequests to non-profit organizations are the most popular way to make significant charitable contributions. A simple provision in your will is all that is necessary to direct that a specific amount, a percentage of your estate, or the remainder of unassigned assets be given to SABA. You may also designate SABA as the contingent beneficiary of assets willed to someone else, should the intended recipient die before you. If you wish your gift to serve a specific purpose, it is best to discuss your intentions with SABA before stipulating the provision in your will.
Example: Dr. Greene has made a provision in his will that gives: “the remainder of my assets to the Society for the Advancement of Behavior Analysis to be used for its exempt purposes.”
