Your peace of mind

Writing a Will does not need to be a difficult task. Even if you don’t own much it is a good idea to make a will. It will make it easier for friends and family to make legal and financial arrangements. Without a will, these arrangements can be complicated and expensive.

And if you already have a will, by regularly reviewing it, you can make sure it stays valid and up to date, so your wishes can be met.

Below is a list of times when you could consider reviewing your Will:

  • Changes in your family circumstances
  • Change in the executor or other beneficiaries
  • Change in your financial circumstances
  • Change in your assets
  • Support of a charity
  • Access to your Will
  • Think of your pets
  • Talk to your legal advisor if its been a while since you last reviewed your Will

Make a Bequest today

By leaving a gift in your Will, you help to ensure life-changing services are available for Australians affected by kidney disease when they need them the most. That includes our mobile dialysis Big Red Kidney Bus, our Kidney Transplant Houses, and our Children and Youth Program. Your generosity also funds ground-breaking research into new treatments for kidney disease.

Circle of Kidney Kindness

As a confirmed bequestor, you will be invited to join our Circle of Kidney Kindness, which brings together a special group of supporters who are offering hope to the next generation. Members of the Circle of Kidney Kindness have all decided to leave a gift in their Will to Kidney Health Australia.

The Circle is inspired by the life of Dr Tim Mathew, who served as our Medical Director for 12 years. In the course of a five-decade long career, he worked tirelessly to improve the lives of people with kidney disease. A kind and gentle man, he led by example, inviting everyone to join him and ‘make good things happen today’.

Dr Mathew shows the impact that just one person can have on others, and so could you through the kind act of remembering our work in your Will.

As a member of the Circle of Kidney Kindness, you will be invited to join the Circle of Kidney Kindness, whereby you will experience unique insights into our work, invitations to events that enable you to deepen your engagement with us and specially prepared information, sharing developments at the earliest opportunity.

We appreciate you considering leaving a Bequest to Kidney Health Australia. If you have any questions about remembering Kidney Health Australia in your Will, please get in touch.
