Your legacy can help build a more inclusive future
There are moments when we reflect on the people, values and experiences that have shaped our lives.
After taking care of those closest to you, a gift in your will is a meaningful way to help create opportunities for future generations of people with disability.
Together, we can help build a future where everyone can belong and thrive.
Creating opportunities to belong and thrive
At Scope, everything begins with people; their hopes, their goals and their right to belong.
Every day, we support thousands of people with complex intellectual and physical disability across Victoria and New South Wales.
Together, we create opportunities for people to live fuller, more independent lives, surrounded by community, connection and choice.
With the support of people like you, we provide:
Living independently
Care and support that build confidence, independence and everyday life skills.
Connection and belonging
Creating opportunities for friendship, participation and meaningful relationships.
Community and inclusion
Supporting people to build confidence, develop skills and achieve their goals.
Future possibilities
Funding innovation, advocacy and new opportunities for future generations.
A legacy of care, connection and inclusion
For many families, Scope becomes part of the extended family, offering not just support, but understanding, empowerment and belonging.
A gift in your will is a powerful way to ensure future generations can belong and thrive.
Writing your will has never been easier
Whether you're creating your first will or updating an existing one, there are several simple ways to include a gift to Scope.
There are several ways to leave a gift to Scope
A gift in your will can take different forms. The options below outline some of the most common ways people choose to support Scope through their estate plans.
A percentage
A percentage gift is a simple and flexible way to create lasting change. By choosing a percentage rather than a fixed amount, your gift will continue to reflect your circumstances while helping future generations of people with disability belong and thrive.
A residual gift
A residual gift is the remainder of your estate after loved ones have been provided for and any specific gifts have been distributed. Many supporters choose this option because it enables them to care for family first, while helping create opportunities for future generations of people with disability to belong and thrive.
A fixed amount
A specific gift is a fixed amount of money nominated in your Will. This option allows you to leave a meaningful contribution that reflects your wishes and values. As circumstances can change over time, it may be worth reviewing your Will periodically to ensure it continues to reflect your intentions.
Suggested wording for your will
When drafting or updating your will we recommend discussing your wishes with a solicitor or legal adviser.
A small decision today can have an impact for generations
Leaving a gift in your Will is a deeply personal decision. It's a reflection of your life, your values and what matters most.
If you have already included Scope in your Will, or are considering doing so, we'd be honoured to hear from you.
By letting us know your intentions, you'll help us plan for the future and give us the opportunity to thank you personally and share the impact your future gift could have.
