Leave a legacy
Leave a Legacy
By leaving a gift to Joliba Trust in your Will, you can help create lasting change for communities in Mali for generations to come
A legacy gift is an investment in the future. It helps ensure that families have access to food, healthcare, clean water, and opportunities to build sustainable livelihoods. Your generosity will continue to support community-led projects long after your lifetime, giving hope to those who need it most.
Every Gift Makes a Difference
Choosing to leave a legacy is a deeply personal decision. We are honoured that you would consider including Joliba Trust in your Will.
No matter the size of your gift, it can have a meaningful impact. After providing for your loved ones, you may wish to leave either:
- A share of your estate (known as a residuary gift).
- A fixed sum of money.
- A specific item of value, such as property, shares, jewellery or an artwork.
Making or Updating Your Will
Leaving a gift to Joliba Trust is simple. Your solicitor or professional will writer can advise you on the best way to include a charitable gift that reflects your wishes.
If you have already made a Will, it is usually straightforward to add a gift to Joliba by using a codicil without rewriting your entire Will. Ask your Solicitor for advice.
