SUPPORT WITH YOUR LEGACY
Do you think about life and what comes after? Would you like your possessions to remain meaningful to others beyond your lifetime? Then you might consider including a charity in your will.
Our Promise
When you decide to leave a legacy to KIYO, we promise to invest it in sustainable and impactful solutions for children and youth, not in short-term measures. And we promise to continue until every child and youth is able to develop their talents and enjoy all their rights - meaning the right to an opinion, education, healthcare, protection, information, privacy, recreation and leisure. You can help make this a reality.
“I came in touch with KIYO in 2011 during my visit to Rio de Janeiro. There, I met KIYO colleague Jan Daniëls, who devoted his heart and soul to the rights of children and youth from the favelas. I understood from this visit that investing in the rights of children and youth is a sustainable investment for a better future. Back in Belgium, I decided to continue to volunteer for children and youth and joined the Governance Board of KIYO. Now I support KIYO in the capacity of volunteer legacy advisor because this source of income is more than necessary to continue our important work for children and youth.”

A donation instead of flowers
When a loved one dies, your world stops for a while. Besides dealing with all the emotions, there are also all sorts of practical matters to arrange. One of these is the choice between giving flowers and wreaths or the option of making a donation.
Because a death puts things on edge, confronts you with questions you thought you would never ask. This period also makes you reflect on what is really important. It is a great comfort if the deceased lives on in some way. The meaning of our lives lies in the difference we continue to make in the lives of others.
If you choose to include a donation as text on the death card, we have the following suggestion:
In remembrance of [name], I prefer no flowers or wreaths but a donation to KIYO because standing up for the rights of children and youth was close to [name]'s heart. Thus, her/his ideals can live on and the world becomes a little better. Thank you very much.
