Leave a Lasting Legacy
Leave a Lasting Legacy
At Child Rescue Nepal, funds from legacies are vital to our very survival. We would love as many people as possible to do something legendary by leaving a gift in their Will to ensure we can continue to rescue and care for forgotten children in Nepal.
To proceed you need to make a Will, or update an existing Will
You can use any solicitor, but we have partnered with McClure Solicitors, who offer this service for free
It’s as easy as a, b, c:
(a) You decide to Leave a Gift in your Will
(b) You contact McClure and they do the rest
(c) Remember you can change your mind at any time and it won’t cost you a penny.

The type of legacy you bequeath will vary according to your circumstances and personal wishes. These are the ones you will hear about most often:
Pecuniary Legacy
A pecuniary legacy is a gift of a fixed sum of money, for example £5,000. The value of pecuniary legacies will decrease over time, as the cost of living increases.
Seek legal advice
It is imperative that you take professional legal advice and that your Will is carefully worded to ensure that your wishes are observed appropriately. We would be very happy to discuss with you the ways in which your legacy to Child Rescue Nepal could be used.
Please feel free to contact us at: info@www.childrescuenepal.org or by calling 020 7183 0353.
Residuary Legacy
This is a gift of the remainder or percentage of your estate once all other legacies have been made and any outstanding debts cleared. These legacies are best for a small charity like ourselves. Residuary legacies keep up with inflation and are an effective way to divide the value of an estate when you have a number of people and good causes you wish to support.
Specific Legacy
If you decide to bequeath a specific item or object – such as a piece of jewellery, for example – this is a specific legacy.
Testimony from Andrea Hosker, who has chosen to leave Child Rescue Nepal a legacy in her Will:
“We have long term involvement in at least 15 other charities, all of which approached us. Child Rescue Nepal is the only one I took the initiative with and contacted to ask for participation; a positive rather than a passive step. We are in the process of updating our wills and have selected four of our charities to benefit when we die. It hasn’t been easy! CRN was one of our choices because you seem to be able to do great good out of very little. We’re happy for the gifts from our wills to be used where the charity judges the needs are most pressing. We make no caveats and have confidence in the team’s integrity and experience in a field which we’re merely glimpsing 2nd or 3rd hand.”

Volunteering
We welcome volunteers in our London office but unfortunately we don’t offer placements in Nepal due to the vulnerability of the children we work with. We are also very aware of fake orphanages and the dangers of ‘voluntourism‘.
Here are some other organisations that offer volunteer placements in Nepal:
Radio Appeal
Have you just listened to our BBC Radio 4 Appeal with Joanna Lumley?
In it you will have heard the heart-breaking story of Sanjeev, whose life was turned upside down when an earthquake struck his village in April 2015.
We rescue children like Sanjeev and take them to a place of safety. Sanjeev is safe now but there are thousands more children In Nepal who need our help. Your donation will help us to rescue more children. Listen to the Radio 4 appeal here.
Sanjeev
In the foreground is Sanjeev’s family home that was destroyed in the earthquake. In the background is the temporary shelter the family is now living in. You can read more about Sanjeev’s story here.
