A Gift in Your Will or Living Trust

Including a gift in your will or living trust to Earthjustice helps ensure our world-class legal team can fight the most urgent environmental crises we face — today and for decades to come.

With your support, we will defend the health of communities, protect wildlife and the natural world, and secure a just, sustainable planet for all.

Gifts in your will or living trust:

  • Require no immediate donation. The gift comes to Earthjustice only after your lifetime.
  • Allow you to change your mind at any time
  • Allow you to take care of loved one first and still support Earthjustice’s long-term mission
  • Are gratefully welcome in any amount

Your attorney can help you determine the best way to make your gift. (Looking for an estate planner?)

Here are some options to consider:

  • You can leave a specific percentage of your estate — even 1% can make a real difference!
  • You can leave a defined sum to Earthjustice.
  • You can leave a percentage of funds left over after other gifts and debts are paid and your loved ones are provided for.
  • You can make a secondary or contingent gift that comes to Earthjustice only if your other beneficiaries do not survive you or other specific gifts cannot be fulfilled.

Why I Give to Earthjustice

“I started supporting Earthjustice when I saw the success they were having in the courts, and how they partnered with and represented other organizations. I knew their work was critical and would be needed far into the future.”
