Leave a lasting legacy: Support breastfeeding mothers for generations to come
After ensuring your loved ones are cared for, you may want to consider leaving a gift in your Will to the Australian Breastfeeding Association (ABA).
Your generosity can help us continue to provide vital support, education, and advocacy for breastfeeding mothers across Australia.
A gift in your Will, no matter the size, can make a profound difference. It can help us empower the next generation of mothers on their breastfeeding and baby care journeys.
How to Include a Gift in Your Will
Leaving a gift to ABA is simple. You can choose to:
- Nominate a percentage of your estate to go to ABA.
- Gift a specific dollar amount from your estate to ABA.
- Leave a residual gift i.e. once all debts, expenses and other gifts in your estate have been made, you can gift the balance of your estate to ABA.
To ensure your gift is directed as you wish, simply include the following details in your Will:
"I give $xxx or xxx% of my net residuary estate or the balance of my net residuary estate to Australian Breastfeeding Association | ABN 64 005 081 523 of Suite 3.2 Level 3, 11 Queens Road, Melbourne VIC 3004 to be used for general breastfeeding education, services, and programs OR specific projects."
How Your Gift Will Make an Impact
My gift will go to support:
General breastfeeding education, services, and programs that help thousands of families every year.
Specific projects, such as the new pregnancy related content in ABA’s mum2mum app or other initiatives that align with your passion.
