Why people choose to leave a gift in their Will
Leaving a gift in your Will is a deeply personal decision. For many, it is a way of giving thanks, honouring values they hold close, and creating a legacy of hope and opportunity for future generations.
Together, these gifts ensure that Mission Australia can continue to stand alongside people facing homelessness, disadvantage and isolation, offering hope for a brighter future.
John’s story: Paying it forward
Thirty years ago, John was living on the streets. With the support of Mission Australia, he found a path to independence and today, he’s giving back in a powerful way.
“Mission Australia helped me so in return I’m helping them by leaving a gift in my Will so they can use the money to continue to help others like me.”
Phil’s Story: Striving for Equality
Growing up hearing stories of his grandparents’ struggles during the Depression, Phil learned the importance of gratitude, kindness, and giving back. Those values now inspire him to leave a gift in his Will.
“I’d like to see a world where everyone has equal opportunity to be physically, mentally and spiritually healthy — no matter who they are or their background. As an organisation inspired by Jesus, that’s the hope Mission Australia offers people in need.”
