Bequests

What will your legacy achieve?

Organising your will is one of the most important things you will ever do. Most significantly, a will protects your family and loved ones. It ensures that your estate is divided among the people you love in the way you intend.

Your will can also act as a microphone into the future. A chance right now, to have your values heard and your beliefs represented beyond your lifespan.

Amnesty International Australia is 100% independent - we follow no particular political system or religion, and refuse government funding for our campaigning so we can be free to criticise the actions or inactions of governments. All our work is funded by people like you, unified in your determination to stand up for freedom and liberate people from injustice.

A bequest to Amnesty International Australia enables us to plan more effectively for future campaigns, to continue defending human rights into the future.

Please contact our Fundraising Coordinator for Bequests for further information on 02 8396 7668 / 1300 300 920 or amanda.barnett@amnesty.org.au. Alternatively you can download our Bequest Information Pack here (pdf 1.4Mb).

In Memory

Firstly, may we offer our sincere condolences if you are selecting this type of support. A gift in lieu of flowers at the funeral of a loved one or dear friend is a most rewarding way to honour their memory. By encouraging those who attend the service to donate, your loved one's beliefs in freedom and global human rights can continue.

Please ask your Funeral Director to contact us to provide special envelopes for the funeral service, or contact Amanda Barnett directly on 02 8396 7668. The nominated next of kin will receive a list of names of all In Memoriam donors.

An alternative way to celebrate the life of a loved one is to create an In Loving Memory page. We have partnered with Everyday Hero to make this process as simple as possible for you at this time.

We are always inspired that so many people choose to support us in this way. Thank you.
