September is Wills Month – a great time to check that your will is up to date and to consider what kind of legacy you want to leave for your community.
Leaving a gift in your will through Sunrise Foundation is one way to make a lasting impact on local groups and organisations in Gisborne-Tairāwhiti, now and for generations to come. It’s a meaningful gesture that anyone can make, regardless of the size of their estate.
Your gift to Sunrise will be invested in what we often call “the pot of money,” with the investment income generated each year going to support the causes you care about—forever.
“Not everyone can afford to give during their lifetime, but a gift in your will is a simple way to make a lasting difference,” says Sunrise CEO Glenda Stokes. “It’s a meaningful way to fulfil your philanthropic goals and support your community well into the future.”
In NZ approximately 6% of wills contain a charitable bequest (FINZ 2022 research). Imagine the difference we could make if more of us did. To help make it easy, two local law firms, Nolans Lawyers and Woodward Chrisp, are generously offering free will updates during September for anyone who wants to add a gift in their will to Sunrise Foundation.

Let your legacy be local.
