Legacy Planning: August is Make-a-Will Month

Posted on July 30, 2024 by Published by

When considering which charities to include in your will or trust, we hope you will remember Our Lady of the Wayside. A bequest can be made to our parish using the following language:

“I give [insert dollar amount, or percentage of net or residuary] to The Catholic Bishop of Chicago, Tax ID #36-2170826, a corporation sole located in Chicago, Illinois, to be used for the benefit of Our Lady of the Wayside parish located in Arlington Heights, Illinois. However, if OLW ceases to exist in its current form, then to the new parish or parishes erected in its stead.”

Please consult an attorney and financial advisor when drafting your will or trust.

For more information, visit giving.archchicago.org/bequest or contact Patrick Fitzgerald, OLW Operations Director, at (847) 253-5353 or by email at operations@olwparish.org.
