Natasha Richardson set aside over $200,000 (£133,300) in her will to help friends and her designer sister battle tough times.
Richardson left the bulk of her assets to her husband, Liam Neeson, according to the New York Post, but left $200,000 to her half-sister Katharine Grimond Hess, a designer, $50,000 (£33,300) to Josephine Burke, a favoured employee, and $10,000 (£6,600) to little-known costumer Kevin Mark Harris.
Neeson and Aidan Quinn have been named executors of the will.
The actress died in March (09) from brain trauma she suffered while taking skiing lessons in Canada.
After her fall the actress, who wasn't wearing a safety helmet, showed no sign of injury until an hour later when she was taken to a nearby hospital as she was complaining of headaches.
It was revealed that she had suffered a traumatic brain injury and was transferred to Hôpital du Sacré-Coeur de Montréal in critical condition before being moved to Lenox Hill in New York.
She died on March 18 after her life support was switched off.
