You may name the Foundation in your will. Your will can include gifts in the form of property (cash, securities and personal property); a percentage of your estate; or the residue of your estate (property remaining after other bequests have been fulfilled). Here is sample language for a bequest to the Foundation:
I give and bequeath to the Lord Fairfax Community College Educational Foundation Inc. the sum of ______ dollars ($__) (or percentage of estate) for the use and benefit of Lord Fairfax Community College, in the manner and for the purposes determined by the discretion of the LFCC Educational Foundation Board.
