Gift in Will

Leave a gift in your will to support the families of veterans.

A Gift in Will to Legacy South Australia and Broken Hill helps ensure the families of veterans receive the care, guidance and practical support they need today, and for generations to come.

Why Leave a Gift in Your Will

Thank you for considering a gift to Legacy South Australia and Broken Hill.

For more than 100 years, Legacy has stood beside the families of veterans, supporting those who have lost a partner, children finding their way forward, and families living with the lifelong impact of service. Here in South Australia and Broken Hill, that support remains close to home.

Leaving a Gift in Will is a meaningful way to honour those who have served our country and support the families who continue to carry that legacy.

Honour the service and sacrifice of our veterans.
Provide families with ongoing professional, practical and emotional support.
Help ensure no veteran’s family feels forgotten or alone. 

No matter the size, every gift can make a real and lasting difference.

There are two simple ways to leave a Gift in Will: through your solicitor, or online through our trusted partner Safewill.

We understand everyone’s circumstances are different. That’s why we offer two easy options.

Option 1 - Through your Solicitor

If you would like more information about making your Will or leaving a bequest to Legacy, or if you need assistance in finding a solicitor in your area, please contact Legacy Club of South Australia and Broken Hill Inc.

There are several different ways you can remember Legacy in your Will.  We encourage you to consider which type of bequest is most appropriate for you.

  • A specific dollar amount
  • A percentage of your total estate
  • The residue of your estate - this means what is left of your estate after your loved ones have been provided for
  • A percentage of the residue of your estate
  • Items of value (such as real estate, shares etc)
  • Life insurance policies and annuities

If you would like to include Legacy South Australia and Broken Hill in your Will, your solicitor may use wording similar to the below.

I give to the Legacy Club of South Australia and Broken Hill Inc.  Welfare Fund ABN 48 827 750 273, Torrens Parade Ground, 1 Victoria Drive, Adelaide SA 5000:

a) the sum of $__________ free of all deductions, or

c) the residue of my estate, or
d) (insert any other thing)

to be used for the general purpose of the said Fund, and I direct that the receipt of any of the members of the Board of Directors of the Fund shall be sufficient discharge to my Executor/s who is/are not bound to see its application.
