Sample Codicil

When it’s time to update your will, you don’t have to start from scratch. You can use a codicil, an addition or supplement that explains or modifies your existing will.

I give, devise, and bequeath $ ___________ to Rocky Mountain Public Media, Inc., 2101 Arapahoe St Denver, CO 80205, for its charitable uses and purposes.

In all other respects I ratify and confirm all of the provision of my said last Will and Testament dated on the _________ day of ______________, 20__.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I sign, publish and declare this instrument to be a Codicil to my last Will and Testament in the presence of the persons witnessing said Codicil at my request this _____ day of ___________, 20__.

_________________________ residing at __________________________
(name)

Witnesses

_________________________ residing at __________________________

The codicil, to be valid, must be signed in the presence of witnesses, and the original placed with your other valuable papers. A copy can go to your lawyer and a copy to Rocky Mountain Public Media.

If you are interested in supporting a specific project or program (KUVO JAZZ, THE DROP, Rocky Mountain PBS, etc.), it is best to discuss your plans with our planned giving professionals before completing your bequest language to confirm your wishes can be met by Rocky Mountain Public Media.
