Wills & bequests

Without the generosity of those people who leave a donation to us in their Will, many of the vital research, education and patient-support programs provided by The Cancer Council Victoria just wouldn't happen.

Gifts left to us in people's Wills are known as 'Bequests', and these are our largest single source of charitable income. As a non-government organisation, many of the advances that we've made throughout our 70-year history wouldn't have been possible  without these promises of long-term funding from our supporters.

Making a bequest to the Cancer Council today will help us to plan our life-saving work into the future.

We've developed a new Wills Guide and DVD that showcases the work of The Cancer Council Victoria, and demonstrates how much of a difference leaving a bequest can make. Bequests help fund vital cancer control projects that otherwise might not have been possible.
