Make a lasting gift to Catherine House
Making a gift by bequest, no matter the amount will provide a permanent legacy to support the ongoing work of Catherine House.
By nominating Catherine House Inc. as the beneficiary or part beneficiary in your will, you will make a profound difference to the lives of women who experience homelessness.
There are many ways in which you can make a bequest and we encourage you to contact your legal advisor to discuss your personal wishes.
A bequest can be added as a codicil to your existing will or included in a new will. If you haven’t written a Will yet, you can write your Will online with Safewill, an affordable and legally-binding Will-writing website. Every Will is reviewed by an Australian solicitor to ensure it is filled out correctly.
If you would like to write your Will with a lawyer in person, we have a partnership with an Adelaide-based law firm who will offer a discount for your services if you leave a gift in your Will to Catherine House. For more information about this offer, please contact Jaylee Cooper for a confidential discussion: [email protected]
