Many of our dedicated supporters choose to leave a gift in their Will - a powerful act of generosity that creates a lasting legacy.
By including Anglicare in your Will, you ensure that your values live on and continue to make a difference for generations to come.
Leaving a gift in your will to a registered charity, also known as a charitable bequest, is a meaningful way to continue making a difference after you're gone. By including a gift in your will, you help Anglicare provide lasting support and transformative services to those most in need.
Beneficiary: Anglican Community Services (ABN 39 922 848 563) operating as Anglicare Sydney.
*Please note that Anglicare Sydney covers most of NSW in its service delivery.
Will Clause: "I give (include details of your gift i.e., percentage of estate, dollar amount of your gift, details of residual gift or specific items of personal and/or real property) to Anglican Community Services (ABN 39 922 848 563), to be used for its general purposes."
Writing your Will doesn't have to be complicated or costly. To make the process easier, Anglicare has partnered with some online providers who can guide you step by step. Whether you prefer a free and straightforward approach or a paid service offering additional support, these options can help ensure your wishes and any gift you'd like to leave are clearly expressed.
Gathered Here offer an easy, secure, and completely free online will-writing service. You can conveniently create your Will online, clearly expressing your wishes and including any charitable gifts.
Safewill provide a convenient and affordable online will-writing service. This paid service offers comprehensive features and clear guidance to help ensure your Will accurately reflects your wishes - including any charitable gifts you may wish to leave. An optional add-on is also available, allowing you to meet with a solicitor for additional legal support.
Anglicare is not recommending, endorsing, or approving either Safe Wills or Gathered Here. People should seek their own independent legal advice with regards to the drafting of their wills.
You can leave a percentage of your estate. This means your gift will adjust with the size of your estate, ensuring its value remains relevant, regardless of inflation.
You can leave the remainder of your estate. This type of gift is also protected from inflation.
You may choose to leave a specific item, such as property, shares or valuable possessions. This allows you to contribute something tangible to our mission.
You can leave a set amount, which is known as a pecuniary gift. Your contribution remains the same, no matter how the overall value of your estate changes.
Families are the building blocks of a healthy society. From early intervention programs preventing family breakdown, through to meeting families in crisis and supporting them to rebuild lives they can deeply value, we're focused on helping Australian families thrive.
As well as offering immediate relief, such as food assistance and debt relief, we seek to build local capabilities and forge transformative relationships with churches and other community partners. We're exploring innovative ways of working in this area including place-based, co-designed solutions, seeking to address the underlying issues in vulnerable communities, and empowering the strength people have when given opportunities to weave a new story their children and grandchildren will inherit.
The mental health and wellbeing of older Australians is frequently overlooked and forgotten, despite the fact this cohort is set to double in size in the coming years and currently has the highest rate of suicide.
Our work is built on a genuine commitment to a 'whole-of-life' approach, affirming the dignity of human beings from their first breath to their final one. We're working to ensure Australians in the later stages of life can continue to experience joy, dignity and connection, rather than loneliness and isolation.
In the most harrowing places people can find themselves - from prisons to hospitals to natural disasters - we provide a compassionate and loving presence, attending to the emotional and spiritual needs of everyday Australians, and reassuring them, no one ever has to walk alone. In every dark valley, we'll be there.
Thank you for considering how you can partner with us.
If you have any further questions or require assistance, our friendly team would love to assist you.
If you have decided to leave a gift in your Will to Anglicare, we welcome you to let us know, as we would like to express our sincere gratitude to you and keep you informed.
