Legacy giving
Create a lasting future for a child. Remember us in your will or estate plans.
A gift in your will is one of the most powerful ways to ensure children without families are cared for, educated, and loved – for generations to come.
Ways to leave a legacy
Gift in your will
Leave a specific sum, a percentage of your estate, or a residual gift after providing for loved ones.
Life insurance
Name The DAVANS ORPHANAGE HOME as a beneficiary of a life insurance policy.
Retirement funds
Designate the orphanage as a beneficiary of your pension or retirement account.
Property or assets
Leave real estate, shares, or valuable assets to support children long-term.
🌳 Your legacy in action
"I had no children of my own, but I wanted to be a mother to many. Leaving a portion of my estate to the orphanage means my love will keep caring for children long after I'm gone."
— Grace A. (founding matron)
"A ₦2 million legacy gift from a supporter built our library. Now 140 children have a place to read and dream. That gift keeps giving every single day."
— Board of Trustees
"I'm not wealthy, but my life insurance policy will ensure a child gets the education I never had. That's my legacy."
— Michael O., regular donor
