Additional Legal Information
How to Make a Gift
You can make a gift (bequest) to KQED through your will or living trust in the following ways:
- A percentage of the residue of your total estate — In using this approach, your gift adjusts with changes in the size of your estate.
- A gift of a specific amount.
- A contingent bequest, in which KQED only receives a gift if other conditions are met. For example, you give $25,000 provided your spouse does not survive you.
Sample Bequest Language
You can send your attorney the following language:
- “I give [describe dollar amount or percentage of estate residue] to KQED Inc, a California not-for-profit corporation, for its general purposes. KQED’s primary office is located at 2601 Mariposa Street, San Francisco, CA 94110.”
