Read on to learn more about how you can gift in your will.

What Does It Mean to Gift in My Will?

By including a donation in your will, you can specify that a portion of your estate be given to a charity of your choosing when the time comes to handle your estate. This type of donation offers the same tax benefits as any regular donation. Your gift will help us provide crucial services and support to patients and their families.

 

How to Gift in Your Will

Simple and Flexible
Adding a donation to your will is straightforward. You simply include an instruction in your will detailing the amount you wish to leave and the charity you want to support. This instruction can be revised or removed at any time. You may also choose to dedicate your donation to add a personal touch.

Suggested Wording
We recommend consulting with your solicitor to ensure everything is correctly documented. Here is a suggested wording for your will:

“I [NAME] bequeath to Leukaemia Support Queensland (ABN 65985031090) [AMOUNT or PERCENTAGE of ESTATE or ASSET]. My bequest is to be used for the general purposes of Leukaemia Support Queensland. I declare that the receipt of the Secretary or other proper officer shall be a complete discharge of my bequest.”

Choosing an Amount to Give
You can decide the right amount to donate based on your circumstances. Options include specifying a fixed monetary amount, a percentage of your estate, or a specific asset. Your generosity will ensure we can continue to provide critical services and support.

Informing Us of Your Gift
While you don’t need to inform us of your gift, we would love the opportunity to thank you personally. Knowing about your intentions can also help us plan for future funds. If your donation is significant, please consider sharing this information with us for better planning and to ensure your wishes are honored.

Specifying the Use of Your Donation
Our funds are used in various ways, and our priorities may shift over time. If you have specific wishes for how your donation should be used, please discuss them with us in advance. This ensures your donation can be effectively and appropriately utilized according to your desires.
