Regular Donation
Regular donations enable us to
plan our work in the longer term knowing that a
certain, regular amount of funding is coming in
every month.
Each ministry needs to raise
additional funds to run their programmes.
Although Mannafest and Axiom charge these fees
are heavily subsidised by the YFCNI. You may want
to support a particular strand of ministry:
Schools Work -
going into schools and youth groups to relevantly
communicate the message of Jesus Christ to
children who may never have heard before.
Mannafest -
enabling more young people to be inspired by
Christ-centred youth-focused teaching to go into
their schools and demonstrate their faith.
Y-1 and Leaders In Training -
offering high quality training and support to
young people starting a career in Christian youth
work.
Summerserve - introducing
evangelism to a new generation of young
Christians through facilitating short-term teams
round Ireland and overseas. This also benefits
the churches as many local young people come to
Christ through peer led mission.
Centres -
relevantly bringing Christ into communities in
Northern Ireland . We provide a safe base from
which to actively demonstrate God's love to the
young people in the area and through them to
their families.
Shop - to
support youth leaders throughout Northern Ireland
with high quality books and contemporary
resources.

How to make a will
If you are making a Will we would advise you to
seek professional advice, usually from a
solicitor. If you have already made a will you
can add to or change it at any time by adding a
legal document called a codicil.
Here is an example of the
wording you should use: 'I bequeath to Youth for
Christ Northern Ireland, Owenmore House, Kilwee
Business Park, Upper Dunmurry Lane, Dunmurry,
BT17 0HD, for its general charitable purposes and
for the receipt of the National Director for the
time being of Youth for Christ Northern Ireland
shall be good and sufficient discharge to my
executors.
Types of Legacy
There are a few different
kinds of gift you can leave in your Will. The
most common are described below.
Residuary bequest
A gift of the remainder of the estate after
all other bequests have been made and debts
cleared is called a residuary bequest.
Pecuniary bequest
A gift of a fixed sum of money in your Will
is called a pecuniary bequest. The value of
pecuniary legacies will decrease over time, as
the cost of living increases.
Specific bequest
A particular named item left as a gift in
your Will is known as a specific bequest - for
example, a piece of jewellery.
Contingent bequest
A gift in your Will that depends upon the
occurrence of an event which may or may not
happen is known legally as a contingent bequest.
An example is a bequest to a charity which
applies only if other beneficiaries named in the
Will die before the testator (person who made the
Will).
Types of wording you should
use
'The sum of.' this is called a
pecuniary bequest
'all residues of my estate.'
this is called a residuary bequest
'one X share of the residue of
my estate.' this is also called a pecuniary
bequest
For more legal advice please
contact your solicitor.
