Of all the decisions we make in our lifetime, writing your Will is amongst the most important.
By leaving a gift in your will today, you can ensure you are changing the lives of people seeking asylum tomorrow. You don’t have to be wealthy to leave a gift in your will. Any bequest, big or small, can help us support people seeking asylum and their families well into the future.
Bequests and legacies are gifts made through your will or living trust to charity. After providing for your family and friends, why not leave a bequest in your will to Friends of Refugees which will ensure people seeking asylum and refugees continue to receive life-changing support and services, now and in the future.
For every person we support, there are five more who urgently need our assistance.
For your gift to Friends of Refugees Inc we recommend the following wording for your legal adviser’s consideration:
“I GIVE, FREE OF ALL DUTIES AND TAXES
the whole of my estate, or
______% of my estate, or
the residue of my estate (or ___% of the residue of my estate), or
