Bequests
A bequest is property given by will. Historically, the term bequest was used for personal property given by will and deviser for real property. Today, the two words are used interchangeably. Creating a will or updating an existing one — is not hard. However, we recommend that you consult with an attorney about the proper wording to make sure it follows all legal requirements.
If you do name our school as a beneficiary, you can share the following language with your attorney:
I give (list a dollar amount/percentage of your estate/specific asset or item) to The Catholic Bishop of Chicago, Tax ID #36-2170826, located in Chicago, Illinois for the use and benefit of St. Luke School located in River Forest, Illinois or to its successor.
Email Sheila Price if you have any questions.
