Wills and bequests

Helping future generations

After taking care of your loved ones you might like to also make a gift that remembers the Asthma Foundation. This gift will extend beyond your lifetime to thousands of New Zealanders with respiratory conditions – helping to ensure that they get the support they need.

If you don't have a will

To make a bequest you need to have a will. If you don’t already have a will then it is important to make one and to do so with legal advice to ensure it is properly prepared.

If you already have a will

If you already have one then all you need to do is to add a supplement to your will – a codicil. Click here to download a codicil template. Remember it is best to make the terms as general as possible as it will likely be a long time before we receive your bequest and our programmes may well change.

We greatly value your support

We would be delighted to hear if you have included a bequest to the Asthma Foundation in your will. Letting us know of your intentions will enable us to thank you personally and acknowledge you on behalf of the thousands of kiwis whose lives you will affect.

Remember: it is our mission, with your assistance, to help all New Zealanders breathe easier.
