Leave a Gift in Your Will – Change a Child’s Future
At Rukungiri Orphan Partnership, we believe every child deserves the chance to learn, grow and build a brighter future. By leaving a gift in your will to charity, you can make a lasting difference to children’s lives in Uganda – even beyond your lifetime. Your legacy gift will help provide access to education, food, and support for vulnerable children. It’s a powerful way to reflect your values and make a meaningful impact.
Why Leave a Legacy Gift to Rukungiri Orphan Partnership?
Leaving a charity legacy donation is a way to ensure your compassion lives on. For many supporters, it’s an opportunity to make a transformational gift they might not be able to give during their lifetime.
Your gift, large or small, will help us continue providing life-changing support to children who need it most.
Ways to Leave a Legacy
There are several ways you can include Rukungiri Orphan Partnership in your will:
- Residuary Legacy – A percentage of your estate, after other gifts and expenses are taken care of.
- Pecuniary Legacy – A fixed amount of money.
- Specific Legacy – A particular item, such as property, shares, or personal possessions.
Suggested Wording for Your Will
