Gifts in Wills (Bequests)
Leaving a Lasting Legacy
How a Bequest Can Help the Cholangiocarcinoma Foundation Australia
By including a gift in your Will, known as a bequest, you can create a lasting impact in the fight against cholangiocarcinoma (bile duct cancer). Your legacy will help fund vital research, raise awareness, and provide much-needed support for families facing this rare and devastating disease.
Even a small portion of your estate can make a meaningful difference. Bequests allow us to plan for the future with confidence and work toward our vision of earlier diagnosis, improved treatments, and greater hope for those affected.
There are different ways to leave a bequest, including:
- Pecuniary Bequest – a specific dollar amount.
- Residual Bequest – the remainder (or a percentage) of your estate after other gifts, taxes, and debts have been settled.
We strongly encourage you to speak with your family and seek professional legal advice when considering a bequest.
If you choose to include us in your Will, please let us know. We’d love the opportunity to thank you and acknowledge your generous commitment to a better future for those living with cholangiocarcinoma.
Our lives really do depend on your support
When we are diagnosed, we do not know what we do not know, but absolutely must as quickly as possible. This is where our Australia Foundation steps in and helps bridge such a crucial gap. We are a Professional Patient-Led Cancer Research and Advocacy Organisation (Charity) that ensures today’s medical research benefits today’s patient survival.
