When you leave Minnesota Lakes and Rivers in your estate plan, you are leaving a lasting legacy of lake and river stewardship, and help us leave our waters better than we found them for the next generation. To honor members who have taken this step, we have started the Lakes and Rivers Legacy Society.
Here is the exact language you would use leave Minnesota Lakes and Rivers a legacy gift:
“I give, devise, and bequeath to Minnesota Lakes and Rivers Protection and Education, a nonprofit corporation organized and existing under the laws of the State of Minnesota, with Tax ID # 82-1196944, the sum of $____ (or __ percent of the residue of my estate) to be used for its general charitable purposes.”
