Protecting Our Heritage for the Future
Thank you for considering making a gift to the Irish Heritage Trust in your will. Legacy gifts of all sizes can have a huge impact, giving you the opportunity to have a transformational influence.
Dedicate your Legacy Gift
A legacy to the Irish Heritage Trust is tax‐free in Ireland if you are an Irish tax payer, since a bequest to a charity is not liable to inheritance tax.
If you would like to remember the Trust in your will, there are two different options:
- A Residuary gift: a percentage of your remaining estate after fees and other gifts have been taken care of.
- A Pecuniary gift: a fixed sum of money
We can provide suggesting wording for your will, or an amendment to your existing will, to ensure that your gift can be efficiently transferred to the Irish Heritage Trust and allocated in accordance with your wishes.
We do also recommend that you always consult your solicitor who will be able to advise you when considering your own personal circumstances.
