“I bequeath ABC STOCK AMOUNT to UCP of Central Florida, a non-profit organization located in Orlando, Florida.”
Residuary Bequest
A residuary bequest designates a percentage of the remaining balance of your estate to UCP of Central Florida, after taxes and specific bequests have been paid. Example:
