Bequest

admin -

A bequest is an irrevocable transfer by will of securities, real estate, tangible personal property, or other assets from the deceased to an individual or charity. Donors typically make outright bequests to charity, but they can also make them in the form of a planned gift. For bequests to charity, the donor's estate earns an estate tax deduction equal to the value of the gift to the charity.
