BEQUESTS TO INTAKA ISLAND In addition to leaving their estates to loved ones, many people also want to leave a legacy by benefitting a favourite charity or non-profit organisation, such as the Intaka Island Environmental Trust. A charitable bequest – which is simply a distribution from your deceased estate to a charitable organisation by a bequest in your will – is an easy and effective way to do this. A charitable bequest can be made by leaving an amount to a charitable organisation of your choice, or to a charitable trust created in terms of your will. However, it will only qualify as a tax deduction for estate duty purposes if the entities in question are public benefit organisations which are exempt from tax in terms of the Income Tax Act.
What happens with your bequest/donation to Intaka?
As a registered non-profit organisation with public benefit organisation status (Section 18A Certificate Holder), we operate under strict financial control and with transparent management of available funds.
