Leaving a legacy to VETAID

Legacies form a huge part of many charities fundraising income - up to 50% of their income!  By remembering VETAID in your will, you can help us in our work changing the lives of farming communities across east Africa today, tomorrow and in the future.

When you make or update your will, you can leave a gift to your favourite charity as well as providing for your loved ones.  Remembering VETAID in your will can also have positive implications for the amount of Inheritance Tax payable on your estate.  Charities are exempt from Inheritance Tax, making this a tax-efficient way of supporting VETAID’s work.

It's easy to include a charity in your will, but you should always consult a professional such as a solicitor or financial adviser to ensure your will reflects your intentions and that you understand tax implications.

It would also be helpful if you could let us know of your intentions.  If we know in very broad terms what our potential future income may be, then we can plan how to develop our programme of work over the coming years.  You can let us know your intentions in as much or as little detail as you choose.  I can assure you that all information you provide will be treated in the strictest confidence.
