FOR A BEQUEST TO A SPECIFIC PROJECT/COUNTRY:

Because AmeriHand Inc.’s projects and location of projects change in response to the needs of those we work with, bequests cannot be allocated to a specific project , as they cannot be assured to be operational at the time of the gift. We will try our best to honor requests if you choose to designate your gift to a specific project or country, but be sure to include this power to vary provision:

“If, in the opinion of the Board of Directors of AmeriHand Inc., it should become impossible, inadvisable, or impractical to use this gift for the specified purpose(s), then the Board may in their discretion use the gift to the best advantage of AmeriHand Inc., keeping in mind the original wishes of the donor.  In any such alternative application, the support provided by this bequest shall be clearly identified with the name of      _______________   .”

Please note that these clauses are suggestions. When drafting your will, please review your intentions with your lawyer.
