Make a planned gift through a bequest, notarized donation, or life insurance policy

Planned gifts help us ensure the future of Les Arts Florissants. Bequests, life insurance policies and donations are powerful ways of contributing. In France, bequests to a foundation recognized as being in the public interest are fully exempt from inheritance tax. Other ways to give may be available in your country. 

Do more by supporting Les Arts Florissants in the long-term. 

Bequests to a charitable foundation such as the Fondation Les Arts Florissants - William Christie are totally exempt from inheritance tax. When you include the Fondation Les Arts Florissants - William Christie in your will through a bequest, or designate it as a beneficiary of your life insurance policy, or notarized donation, you play an important role in perpetuating the mission of Les Arts Florissants, today and for generations to come. Be part of the Baroque spirit, today and tomorrow.

• Bequest (legs): a provision in your testament by which you pass on all or part of your estate, subject to the rights of your heirs with reserved rights.

   

• Life insurance policy (assurance-vie): arranged with a bank, insurance company, or other financial institution, this is a simple and effective way of passing on capital without complex formalities or inheritance tax to pay. Your contract allows you to easily designate one or more beneficiaries of the capital in the event of your death. You can designate the Fondation Les Arts Florissants - William Christie as beneficiary or co-beneficiary.

   

• Notarized donation (donation): allows you to pass on part of your assets during your lifetime. Unlike a bequest, it takes effect immediately. It can involve a sum of money, shares, real estate, or any other item of value you possess on the day the notarial deed is signed.
