Lifelong Giving

A bequest is a gift made in a Will, which in turn is a legal document specifying how a person wishes his or her property to be distributed after they die. A gift can include money, shares, jewellery, houses and a range of other items.

By leaving a gift to SRS in your Will, you can make a lasting difference and lessen the impact of disability in the lives of local children, young people and adults who live with disabilities.

How can I leave a bequest?

Leaving a bequest in your will is easy. The following simple statement in your will ensures your wishes are carried out:

‘I give and bequeath the sum of $_____ (*or alternatively a specific gift or percentage of estate can be given) to SRS Inc to be paid free of all duty and to be applied for the general purposes of the organisation. I declare the receipt of the Chief Executive Officer or other proper officer of SRS Inc shall be a sufficient discharge to my executors.’

SRS recommends you obtain legal advice when making or amending a will.

I already have a will, and want to add my bequest to SRS Inc.

If you want to add a bequest to your will, you can simply add a supplement which sets out your instructions for a bequest.

Please tell us when you make a choice to leave us a bequest

When you have decided to make a bequest we ask you to let us know. You are a very special supporter and we would like the opportunity to thank you in person for your generosity and kindness.

Please act now!

The donation you make will play a vital part in maintaining and expanding the services at SRS Inc. When you leave a bequest to SRS you can rest assured part of your estate is being shared between the many children, young people and adults with a disability in the Sunraysia community who desperately need your help. You’ll know that your legacy will benefit people with a disability for years to come – you’ll be changing their lives forever. Please consider remembering us in your Will. Together we can make an enormous difference by recognising people’s abilities – not their disabilities.
