How A Bequest Works

A bequest is one of the easiest legacy gifts you can make. You may include language in your will specifying a gift be made to Nashville Rescue Mission as part of your estate plan.

A bequest is generally a revocable gift, which means it can be changed or modified at any time. You can choose to designate that a bequest is used for a general or specific purpose, giving you the peace of mind knowing your gift will be used as intended. Bequests are exempt from federal estate taxes.
