Gifts and Wills

Create a Lasting Impact with a Gift in Your Will

People just like you have chosen to include St Bernard’s in their wills. They do this not because they are wealthy, but because they care deeply about making sure that others receive the care and compassion they value.

St Bernard’s has stood for over 35 years. By including us in your will, you can make sure that the values that have been important to you in your life live on. Your gift will help provide palliative care, pain relief, and emotional support to patients and families for generations to come.

Why Gifts in Wills Matter

Making a gift in your will to St Bernard’s is more than a generous act – it’s a way to carry your story and the values that define you far into the future.

Every gift, large or small, helps sustain the essential services we provide to people in need. Your gift will:

• Help patients receive care in their homes.
• Support holistic care, including pain relief, emotional well-being, and spiritual support.
• Sustain the work of St Bernard’s for future generations.

How You Can Leave a Gift in Your Will

• Talk to your attorney or financial adviser, if you have one. They can guide you through the process and ensure your wishes are reflected in your will.

• Choose the type of gift. You can leave a fixed amount of money, a percentage, or the remainder of your estate after providing for loved ones, or an item of value such as property or shares.
