Q Place Bequest Giving

Thank you for your interest in supporting the mission of Q Place through a gift in your will or trust. We count it an honor and a great responsibility before God to steward your gift well so that the ministry of Q Place continues to multiply the number of people who are questioning, discovering, and growing in their relationship with God. 

If you have a taxable estate, your bequest will offset or eliminate estate taxes, potentially also providing an increase in inheritance for your heirs. By making a bequest you are leaving a lasting legacy for ministries that are important to you. 

How to Get Started

Your attorney can help you include a bequest to Q Place in your estate plan, and we have provided some basic bequest wording on this page to assist you and your attorney.

At this time, bequest gifts to Q Place are limited to dollar amounts or percentages of an estate rather than including gifts of property or real estate.

Wording for Bequests to Q Place

A specific bequest involves making a gift of a specific dollar amount or a percentage of your overall estate. For example, you may wish to leave $10,000 to Q Place, or you may wish to leave 10% of your estate to Q Place.

A residual bequest is a bequest that is made from the balance of an estate after the will or trust has given away all specific bequests. A common residual bequest involves leaving a percentage of the residue of the estate to charity. For example, you may wish to leave 30% of the residue of your estate to Q Place.
