While loved ones should always be your first consideration, have you ever thought about the legacy that you could leave behind by including a charity as a beneficiary in your Will?
Around 25% of Australians say they would like to include a charity but it’s often not top of mind when it comes time to write their Will, resulting in only 7.5% following through. This is unfortunate because, for many people, their legacy is a wonderful chance to make a big difference in the lives of vulnerable people around the world, even if they didn’t have the means to do so during their lifetime.
Wills Estate makes it easy and simple to include a charity in your Will.
