A charitable bequest is one of the easiest ways you can leave a lasting impact on The Friends of Antrim Creek Natural Area.
A bequest may be made in your will or trust directing a gift to The Friends of Antrim Creek Natural Area. With the help of an advisor, you can include language in your will or trust specifying a gift to be made to family, friends, or Friends of Antrim Creek Natural Area as part of your estate plan.

- Lessen the burden of taxes on your family.
- Leave a lasting legacy.
Your Bequest Options: A bequest may be made in several ways:
- Gift of a percentage of your estate
- Gift of a specific dollar amount or asset
- Gift from the balance or residue of your estate
- Gift your retirement assets – A retirement asset, such as an IRA account, makes an excellent bequest to us. If the IRA were given to your family, much of the value may be lost through estate and income taxes.
