Did you know that a gift left in your will leaves a lasting legacy?
Imagine a world without your favourite charities and all of the good work that they do … Did you know that a gift left in your will leaves a lasting legacy?Without these legacies our impact at Breast Cancer Care WA would not be as far-reaching and we would struggle to continue our work. That’s why we are one of over 100 charities who are working together as part of the Include a Charity campaign.
Our income comes from the generosity of people like you – whether it is through donations, taking part in our events or supporting those who raise funds on our behalf. It is a little known fact however that much of our vital income comes from those who leave us a bequest. You don’t need to be wealthy to leave a gift in your will – no matter what size the gift, it helps the work live on.
Gifts in Wills
By including Breast Cancer Care WA in your future planning, you will be helping a small WA based charity to continue providing specialist breast care nursing, counselling and financial support to over 1,000 daughters, mothers and wives diagnosed with breast cancer each year. Being diagnosed with breast cancer can be one of the most stressful times in a person’s life. As young mum Emma said:
I was shocked for days after my diagnosis, I had so many questions to ask, what type of treatment will I need, is it anywhere else in my body, will it come back later in life, will I survive to see my beautiful girls grow up?
Emma – Young Mother
Founded in 2000, Breast Cancer Care WA’s team of trained professionals work holistically to create tailored solutions to the challenges faced by people like Emma. Our aim is to ensure all Western Australians have access to the very best education, support and services available and to help them feel supported and cared for during their cancer journey.
A bequest to Breast Cancer Care WA
Bequests are a great source of income. They are also the greatest commitment a supporter can demonstrate. By leaving a bequest to Breast Cancer Care WA, after providing for family and loved ones, you can help us to continue to provide our services free of charge to people diagnosed with breast cancer in WA.
As Breast Cancer Care WA does not receive any government funding, the level of service we can provide is only limited to the generosity of the WA community. So whether the gift you leave in your Will to Breast Cancer Care WA is large or small, it will be greatly appreciated and will make a huge difference to the level of support we can provide.
