Wills & inheritance
Contribute to our shared cultural heritage
What will your legacy be for the future? By including Kulturen in your will, you help us preserve the treasures of southern Sweden for another hundred years. When you make a gift to Kulturen, you can be confident that it will be carefully stewarded and enjoyed as part of our shared cultural heritage, benefiting future generations.
Bequeath a gift to the Cultural History Association of Southern Sweden
Through a will, Kulturen can accept gifts such as cash donations, securities, real estate, tenant-owned apartments, and personal property. As a non-profit association, we are exempt from capital gains tax on the sale of shares, funds, real estate, and tenant-owned apartments, meaning that the full value of your gift goes directly to Kulturen.
Wills benefiting Kulturen should be made in favor of:
The Cultural History Association of Southern Sweden
Box 1095
SE-221 04 Lund
Sweden
Registration No. 845000-0842
You can prepare your will completely free of charge using the legal digital service Jurio.
Purpose
We take great care to ensure that every bequest is used in accordance with the terms of the will. If no specific purpose is stated, we will use the gift where it is most needed.
If you would like your bequest to support a particular purpose, you are of course welcome to specify this. Please keep in mind that needs may change over time. We therefore recommend wording such as: “The funds shall primarily be used for … and, alternatively, for similar activities or wherever the need is greatest.”
