Bequest Language
For an unrestricted gift that allows Ohio Living Foundation to determine how to use the funds based on the most pressing needs, use the following language for your will and/or trust:
"I give to Ohio Living Foundation, a nonprofit corporation currently located at 9200 Worthington Road, Ste. 300, Westerville, OH 43082, or its successor thereto, _______ [written amount or percentage of the estate or description of property] for its unrestricted charitable use and purpose."
To designate your provision for a particular purpose:
"I give to Ohio Living Foundation, a nonprofit corporation currently located at 9200 Worthington Road, Ste. 300, Westerville, OH 43082, or its successor thereto, _________ [written amount or percentage of the estate or description of property]. This gift should be used for (state purpose) if and so long as Ohio Living Foundation determines that the need exists. If Ohio Living Foundation shall determine at the outset or at a later time that the need does not exist or no longer exists or for some reason it is not possible (or prudent) to administer my gift as originally intended, then Ohio Living Foundation may, in its sole and uncontrolled discretion, direct the use of my bequest for a purpose related as closely as possible to that stated above."
