A gift in your will

By remembering Build IT in your will you can help make the world a fairer place for some of its poorest people. Legacy giving is simple and painless, and remember, a gift to Build IT in your will doesn’t attract inheritance tax, which may save tax your executors would otherwise have to pay.
