Giving the best gift of all.
When a child is diagnosed with an illness or injury, it can have a devastating effect on families. There is added stress for those that don’t live close to the medical care their child requires, forcing them to leave their homes, work, schools and community to travel for their child’s treatment.
If you’re interested in pledging a gift in your Will, you can do through EveryWill, Australia’s most trusted online Will platform. Even if you’re not ready to leave a gift just yet, you can still take care of your Will for free – with unlimited updates for life!
Caring for families with children who are ill or injured.
Family is important. Once you have taken care of your family in your Will, including a gift in your Will is an easy and wonderful way to make a lasting and life-changing impact on improving the lives of ill and injured children and their families long after you’ve gone.
Consider, for a moment, leaving a gift in your Will. Even a gift equal to 1% of your Estate would have a considerable impact toward achieving our vision. It would help us support the next generation of families during one of the most challenging and stressful times in their lives.
