I hope this legacy will help drive research and improve care for young people and families facing such difficult situations. " Testimonials Dr. Manuel Comabella, principal investigator at VHIR "Rare diseases affect very few people and receive limited investment, which makes research more difficult. For this reason, private support is essential: donations and legacy gifts have been key to driving, consolidating and advancing projects that would not have been possible without this support."

A will is a written document in which a person sets out how they wish their assets to be distributed after their death. One part is reserved for compulsory heirs and another is freely distributable. It is usually drawn up before a notary, who provides advice and keeps the document. What types of will are there? Open will: signed before a notary; the most common and secure option.Closed will: the testator submits the contents in a sealed envelope to the notary.Holographic will: handwritten by the testator; it requires legal validation after death. What is the difference between inheritance and a legacy? Inheritance is the total set of assets, rights and obligations, divided into compulsory share, improvement and free disposal. A legacy is a specific asset or right left to a person or organisation without affecting the compulsory share. What happens if I do not make a will? The law determines the heirs according to the order of kinship. If there are no heirs, the estate passes to the State. What kind of assets can I leave to Vall d’Hebron?
