It is simple to leave a gift in your will and there are many ways to do it. A bequest can be made for a specific amount, or for all or a portion of what is left after you have made bequests to your family. If you already have a will, you can ask your estate lawyer to include The Syria Campaign in your planning by adding as little as one sentence. Here is some sample language:
The Syria Campaign’s legal name: The Voices Project USA Inc
Address: The Voices Project / The Syria Campaign, c/o Accounting Solutions of New York, 241 West 37th Street, Suite 1207, New York, NY 10018
