Bequests

Remembering the Right Livelihood Award Fund at the New World Foundation, New York, in your will is an easy yet invaluably important way to support the future of the Award. We advise you to consult your attorney to discuss the wording of a codicil to your will. We will be happy to answer your questions.

If you have made a bequest to us in your will, we appreciate if you inform us.

Direct donations to the Swedish Foundation

If tax-deductibility is not relevant for you, you may want to donate directly to the Swedish Foundation, e.g. by credit card.
