Leave a gift in your Will

Skip to main content

Leaving a gift in your Will means your legacy will continue to help support people impacted by sexual, domestic and family violence. We are truly grateful for anything you choose to give.

Since the creation of our organisation at the height of the women's movement in 1971, we have relied on the generosity of our supporters to provide the best possible support for people impacted by sexual, domestic and family violence.

From our early days as the Sydney Rape Crisis Collective run by volunteers to the national provider of counselling services we are today, we continue to advocate, support and educate.

How to leave a gift to Full Stop Australia in your Will

We all need to make important decisions relating to our financial affairs, and writing your Will is essential for your loved ones to carry out your final wishes.

We understand and respect that you need to provide for your family and friends first. We are incredibly grateful for any support that you can provide.

By remembering Full Stop Australia with a gift in your Will (also known as a bequest), your legacy will continue to help support people impacted by sexual, domestic and family violence.

How you choose to leave a gift in your Will depends on your personal preference or circumstances.

The best way to arrange leaving a gift to Full Stop Australia is to speak with a solicitor to either create or update your Will. A solicitor can ensure that your estate is distributed in a way that meets your wishes.

As a guide, the most common types of gifts include:

  • Your entire estate - the remainder of your estate after any expenses and liabilities have been settled.
  • Residual gift - a percentage of the residual from your estate after any expenses that will not be eroded by inflation over time.
  • Pecuniary gift - a specified amount of money

Our suggested wording for your Will
