Leave a bequest - Stepping Stone House

Homelessness currently impacts over 46,000 young Australians every day. Its incidence is increasing – meaning far too many young people are being impacted during a critical time in their growth, affecting their health, development, and foundation for the rest of their lives.

It’s a reality we cannot ignore, but together we can create a better future for more young people who need it most.

Leaving a gift to Stepping Stone House in your Will, will ensure you leave a direct, positive and enduring legacy in your local community. Your gift will help young Australians experiencing or at risk of homelessness gain independence and access to opportunities that will enrich their lives forever.

How to leave a gift in your Will.

It is important to have a Will to ensure your estate is given to the people and causes you most care about. Making or updating your Will need not be expensive or complicated, but you should seek legal advice and talk through how you wish your estate to be distributed. Reviewing your Will every few years is also important as circumstances change throughout your life such as marriage, sale of a property, birth of children or grandchildren and changes to family relationships.

Did you know that by leaving 1% of your estate to charity your loved ones will still receive 99%?
