Make diabetes research your life’s legacy
Include a Charity week is in the month of September, so during the whole month we are highlighting the impact of a gift in your will to Diabetes Victoria.
This initiative aims to encourage more Australians to pledge a charitable gift in their will.
Many people don’t know this, but gifts pledged in wills make up around a quarter of all charity income in Australia. Without them, the world would be a very different place.
Having a valid will in place is one of the best ways to protect your family and loved ones, while also creating a legacy for the causes you care about.
To coincide with Include a Charity Week during September, you can create your will for free with either of our online will writing platform partners, Safewill and Gathered Here, however, numbers are limited.
The process takes only 20 minutes and creates a legally valid will.
Diabetes Victoria’s legacy supporters have always played a huge part in our vital work in the community.
With 1 in 5 Victorian families affected by diabetes, legacy giving is more important than ever.
Your legacy gift to Diabetes Victoria can help us achieve our vision of a world in which diabetes can do no harm; and contributes to the ongoing investment in diabetes research, education, and support programs.
By leaving a gift in your will to Diabetes Victoria, you're contributing to the improvement of the health and wellbeing of people affected by diabetes and working towards a brighter future.
If you're considering leaving a gift in your will, please ensure to include our charity name, Diabetes Victoria, and our ABN 71 005 239 510.
A heartfelt thank you from all of us at Diabetes Victoria and from the community affected by diabetes.
