Bequest Statement

Planned Giving Language

Through a charitable bequest in your will or living trust, you can ensure that Community Bridges will be there for future generations of children, families and seniors in need.

All that is needed is a short statement in your will or trust.

“I give, devise and bequeath to Community Bridges, tax ID# 94-2460211, located at 519 Main Street, Watsonville, CA 95076, [the sum of $_______, or state a percentage of your residuary estate, or designate real and personal property, including exact location] for the benefit of its general purposes [or specify the Community Bridges program you wish to support.]”

This is merely a suggested wording; please consult your attorney or an estate planning professional when preparing legal documents.

For more information, please contact Anna Vaage, Senior Development Analyst, at 831-688-8840 x205 or annav@cbridges.org. We’re here to help.

Preparedness starts close to home.This week, choose three actions:• Prepare or refresh your emergency go-bag.• Confirm your emergency contacts and evacuation plan.• Check in with a neighbor who may need extra time, transportation or support.A phone call, shared ride plan or translated resource can make a meaningful difference. When neighbors look out for one another, preparedness becomes community care.#NationalPreparednessMonth #NeighborsHelpingNeighbors #EmergencyPreparedness #CommunityBridges ...
