Nowadays, pressures of work and family
responsibilities often means that we cocoon ourselves in our own little
world, striving to make provision for our own needs. Looking after
ourselves and our families is of course, quite rightly, a natural thing
for us to do. However, it can lead to us being impervious to the poverty
and dire situations that people around the world face in their daily
lives.
Collectively, we can make a real
difference in alleviating this suffering and depravation and SPICMA
donors have shown this, time and again, by supporting our various
projects and appeals.
We have helped communities to be self
sufficient in farming and livestock management. We have supported a
number of educational programmes; the latest being to equip St Theresa's
School in Uganda with ten computers. Everybody has a right to clean
drinking water and in this regard SPICMA has been involved in sinking
twenty boreholes in Kotido diocese, Uganda. In the scale of things,
these are small steps but they make an enormous difference to the
quality of life for these communities.
When the Tsunami hit Sri Lanka and
floods devastated huge areas in India and Pakistan, SPICMA was at the
forefront in responding to pleas for help.
You can help ensure all this
important work continues by
Bequeathing a part of Your Estate to SPICMA
Leaving a legacy to SPICMA is free from Inheritance Tax
0f 40%. It can also reduce the overall value of your estate that would
be subject to Inheritance Tax.
If you already have a Will and you wish to
add a gift for SPICMA to an existing Will - this can be done using a
‘Codicil’. A ‘Codicil’ need not change the terms of your current Will,
it simply adds a new instruction.

will send you a printed form.
