Including Physicians for Human Rights in your will can be an opportunity to advance the values that have been most important to you in your life and that you share with PHR. You can continue the fight for justice and dignity for all by honoring Physicians for Human Rights in your will with a bequest.
Your gift can be in the form of cash, stocks, bonds, or other personal property. Your estate will receive a charitable tax deduction for the value of your gift as allowed by law. You can name a specific dollar amount or designate a percentage of your estate.
All bequests go to support PHR’s general operations unless otherwise specified.
