WITNESS AND LEGACIES
It is possible to contribute to the Works of the Shrine by naming us in your Last Will & Testament. A testamentary legacy is a choice that not only honors the person who signs it (the testator), but also helps to keep intact over time a centuries-old history that is everyone’s heritage.
Donating one’s heritage to the Sanctuary’s fundraising projects is an act of awareness and generosity that reflects that sense of solidarity and commitment to the enhancement of cultural heritage. The Sanctuary will undertake to ensure that the will of the testator is respected so that the patrimony that is bequeathed is of help according to his personal dispositions.
Information for the testator:
Making a will does not necessarily mean donating the entire estate. In fact, anyone who intends to donate in this way can decide in full freedom to leave even only a part of his assets which can be those listed below:
- sums of money;
- shares and investment securities
- movable property (works of art, jewelry, furnishings);
- real estate;
- the life insurance policy
Furthermore, the testator can decide to make a will at any time by choosing to write it in the way that suits him best: Holographic Testament * (in his own hand);
Public Will (have it drawn up by a notary in the presence of two witnesses);
Secret Testament (deliver a will in a sealed envelope to the notary).
It is important to know that you can change, cancel or replace your will at any time. It will take effect only when the succession is opened and the most recent draft will have value. However, what is fundamental for the legacy to be valid is the clear indication of the institutional body to which you want to allocate this patrimony: “I appoint universal heir of all my assets (or part of them -indicate which ones-) the Sanctuary of Maria SS.ma del Colle in Lenola, LT, Italy ”.
* In the case of a Holographic Will, it is valid only if written by hand and bearing the date and signature of the testator.
