Gifts in Wills

Leave a lasting legacy by leaving a Gift in your Will to Whanganui Collegiate School. Your gift will make a profound and lasting impact on the future of our students and will help shape the next generation of business, political, and community leaders.

Why Leave a Gift in Your Will?

A Gift in your Will, also known as a bequest, is a powerful way to support the mission and vision of Whanganui Collegiate School. If you have been impacted by our School personally, leaving a Gift in your Will is also a unique opportunity to show your appreciation. It allows you to:

Make a Meaningful Impact: Your contribution will provide lasting support, helping to fund essential programmes and initiatives for years to come.
Preserve Your Values: Ensure that your commitment to the School is sustained, reflecting what’s most important to you.
Provide for Loved Ones: Including a Gift in your Will won’t mean you have to choose between your loved ones and your charitable goals. By giving as little as 1% with the remaining 99% going to your family, you can achieve both goals.

Types of Gifts You Can Leave

A percentage of your estate
This ensures that, even if your assets increase or decrease in value, the Gift you wish to leave to Whanganui Collegiate School will adjust accordingly.
A monetary gift
The nominated sum will pass to Whanganui Collegiate School.
A specific gift of another type of asset
It’s a good idea to share your intentions with us, so we can ensure your wishes are properly honoured. For example: shares, art, or property.
The residue of your estate
After other Gifts in your Will have been made, some or all of the remainder of your estate will pass to Whanganui Collegiate School.

Honouring your Legacy

We understand that leaving a Gift in your Will is a deeply personal decision. To show our appreciation, we offer special recognition to those who choose to support us in this way. You can choose to be acknowledged publicly, or if you prefer, your gift can remain anonymous.
