Gifts by Bequest

For over 55 years, the WPC has been a community resource for encouraging and simulating interest in works on paper, including the history, study, education, collecting preservation and enjoyment of prints.  To ensure that the work and legacy of the WPC continues well into the future, please consider providing long-term support of the WPC by making a planned gift in the form of a bequest. 

A bequest, the most common planned gift, allows you to retain control to change terms during your lifetime.  To make a bequest, simply include the WPC in your will.  Charitable bequests are fully tax-deductible from your estate’s assets, allowing you to potentially save considerable estate taxes.  There is no minimum required to include a bequest in your will.

Sample Bequest Language:  “I give and bequeath (dollar amount, percentage amount, or description of asset) to The Washington Print Club, (address), for the general purposes of the club.”
