Legacy & Bequest

A legacy for the future

A legacy or bequest to the Humanistic School is one of the most meaningful forms of support – a gift that endures across generations.

What is a legacy?

A legacy is a designated donation in your will. You decide what amount or item you wish to leave to the Humanistic School – without disadvantaging your family.

Independent guidance

We strongly recommend consulting an independent inheritance lawyer or notary when planning a legacy. They represent exclusively your interests – without conflict of interest.
