Bequest
A great way for you to be involved with Assistance Dogs Australia is by thinking of us when you are considering your will. There are many ways that you can continue helping us by either including a bequest to Assistance Dogs Australia in a new will, by executing a codicil to an existing will which includes a bequest to Assistance Dogs Australia or by nominating Assistance Dogs Australia as a beneficiary of a policy of insurance payable on death.
How to include Assistance Dogs Australia in your will:
The appropriate wording in your Will is as follows:
“I GIVE AND BEQUEATH to Assistance Dogs Australia Limited my Estate
(or “the sum of $....................”) for its general purposes and I DECLARE that the receipt of the secretary or other proper officer for the time being of Assistance Dogs Australia shall be a full discharge for my trustees for the bequest.”
Your bequest will make a great difference to the lives of many disabled people throughout Australia — in many cases giving them their first experience of freedom and independence.
You should seek your solicitor or insurance companies advice but if you wish to contact Assistance Dogs Australia we will be only more than happy to help you with your enquiry.
