Leave something behind that lasts

If issues such as solar energy and the promotion of health, women and education in Africa have been close to your heart throughout your life, writing a will gives you the opportunity to continue your values and support even if you are no longer around one day. After considering your family and loved ones, you can also use the free quota to give to charitable organisations such as Solafrica.

With a inheritance or legacy to Solafrica, we pledge to work on your behalf to advance the use of solar energy in African countries and in Switzerland in a forward-looking manner – whether through education, social entrepreneurship and the construction of non-profit solar plants. This is our promise.

Frequently asked questions

How can I include Solafrica in my will?

When writing your will, you decide what you would like to bequeath to Solafrica within the free quota and after taking into account the compulsory shares. You have the option of listing our association as a legatee (with a certain amount or percentage of your assets) or as an heir (co-heir or sole heir). Writing a will does not mean saying goodbye to life, but rather ensuring at an early stage that your last wishes are implemented correctly.

With an inheritance, you bequeath part of your estate to Solafrica and appoint us as co-heir. As part of the free quota, you specify what percentage of your estate you wish to leave to us. A legacy is a fixed amount (in francs or %) or an object that is to go to Solafrica without us being heirs.
For non-profit organisations like Solafrica, inheritances and legacies are important because they enable the long-term development of the organisation. We guarantee the careful use of your legacy.
Transparency, openness and care are our promise to you. The ZEWO seal of approval confirms that your legacy has been used carefully and for the intended purpose.

The will must always be completely handwritten, dated and signed and deposited in a safe place (local authority, person of you trust, your bank).

We have prepared a sample will that you can simply copy by hand and adapt to your situation and wishes. We would be pleased to send you the sample, either as an electronic download via email or by post.
