SOLIDARITY LEAVE

A CHOICE FOR THE FUTURE OF CHILDREN

Choosing to leave even a portion of the available portion of one’s estate in a will represents an assurance that one’s principles and wishes will be transformed into tangible and lasting projects, a promise to children and their families to do everything possible to help them achieve their small and great goals. But it is also a statement of intent that allows CARE TO ACTION to further solidify its commitment, ensuring continuity in the design of interventions over time and generating increasingly significant social impact in the community.

THE VARIOUS TYPES OF WILLS

HOLOGRAPHIC WILL

A holographic will is free and is a document written entirely by hand by the testator, dated and signed. This form of will does not require witnesses and is usually kept by a notary public, the testator himself or a trusted third party. It is important that the text is clear and that the testator is mentally capable of performing this act at the time of writing.

PUBLIC WILL

A public will is drawn up by a notary public, based on the testator’s wishes. The notary records the will of the testator in a public deed, and this document has full legal validity. It requires the presence of two witnesses who attest to the testator’s signature or his or her declaration of inability to sign. It is difficult to challenge, and the cost varies according to the complexity of the dispositions and the size of the inherited estate.

SECRET WILL

This is the least used form. In this case, the contents remain unknown even to the notary, who will receive the contents in a sealed envelope and keep it until opened. It can be written on a computer or typewriter even by third persons, with the date and signature of the testator, will then be placed in a sealed envelope and delivered to the notary in the presence of two witnesses.

LIFE POLICY

AN ALTERNATIVE FOR DOING GOOD

In addition to a bequest in your will and donations made during your lifetime, you can support CARE TO ACTION through a life insurance policy. A life policy is an effective tool for supporting the activities of a nonprofit organization.

This type of policy provides that, in the event of the insured’s death, the amount agreed upon in the contract is allocated to the selected organization. This allows the insured to make a gesture of solidarity towards the nonprofit organization and contribute to the achievement of its goals. The life insurance policy can be taken out with varying amounts, depending on the insured’s available financial resources, and is open to people of any age.

It is important to note that, as it is not part of the estate, the life insurance policy is not included in the calculation of the legitimate share due to the legitimate heirs. When taking out the policy, simply indicate CARE TO ACTION as the beneficiary of the insurance. In case the policy is already active, you can make this designation at a later date by communicating the decision to the insurance company or by including it in your will as a testamentary will.
