Leave a Gift in your Will

A gift in your will is a meaningful way to support people affected by brain tumours beyond your lifetime. After you have provided for your family and loved ones, you may choose to include Brain Tumour Alliance Australia in your will to help ensure ongoing support, advocacy and connection for the brain tumour community.

Your gift can take many forms, including:

A percentage of your estate
A specific amount of money
An item of value, such as property
The residue of your estate after other gifts have been distributed

Brain Tumour Alliance Australia cannot provide legal advice. We recommend speaking with a qualified solicitor or trustee company to ensure your wishes are clearly documented and legally protected.

Suggested wording for your will

Below is sample wording you can share with your solicitor when including Brain Tumour Alliance Australia in your will. Replace X with your chosen amount, percentage or description.

I bequeath to Brain Tumour Alliance Australia (ABN 97 733 801 179), PO BOX 67, Belconnen ACT 2616, free of all duties and charges, to be used for its general purposes. The official receipt of Brain Tumour Alliance Australia will be a sufficient acknowledgement of receipt of this gift.
