Include A Gift In Your Will For Stride And Leave A Lasting Legacy For People Accessing Community Mental Health Services
Did you know that 1 in 5 of us will experience a mental health challenge in any given year?
Mental health issues will touch us in one way or another, whether personally, through a friend or a loved one.
But sadly, it’s common that these challenges will go untreated due to a lack of resources, funds, or knowledge on where and how to find help.

Types of Gifts In Wills
Writing a Will provides you with the opportunity to leave a legacy that supports the causes you care about, even after you’re gone. If supporting Stride’s mission to provide vital mental health services aligns with your values, there are several ways you can include Stride in your Will.
Each type of gift in your Will can help us continue to offer critical mental health support, ensuring that Australians from all walks of life have access to the care they need.

Residuary Gift
A residuary gift is a thoughtful way to leave a lasting impact. After ensuring your loved ones are taken care of, any remainder of your estate can be donated to Stride. This type of gift allows you to support Stride without affecting the needs of your immediate family, leaving a portion of your estate to help fund our life-changing mental health services.
When you choose to leave a residuary gift, you help us provide long-term support for the thousands of Australians who rely on our services. It’s a meaningful way to make sure your values live on and that your legacy extends to the people who need it most.

Pecuniary Gift
A pecuniary gift is a specific monetary sum that you leave to Stride. This type of gift allows you to determine exactly how much you would like to donate, ensuring that your contribution directly supports Stride’s work in mental health.
Whether it’s a modest amount or a larger contribution, your pecuniary gift will have a direct and immediate impact, helping us continue our programs that support mental health care, community outreach, and crisis accommodation.

Specific Gift
If you have valuable items such as property, shares, or family heirlooms, you may choose to leave them to Stride. A specific gift allows you to provide Stride with assets that will be used to support people facing mental health challenges.
This type of gift can be especially meaningful if you have treasured possessions that you would like to see used for a good cause. Specific gifts help ensure that Stride has the resources necessary to continue offering mental health services for those who need it the most.

Percentage Gift
A percentage gift is an increasingly popular choice for those who want to leave a part of their estate to Stride while ensuring that their loved ones are also cared for. By leaving a percentage of your estate, rather than a fixed amount, your gift will grow in line with your estate’s value.
This type of gift ensures that your legacy for mental health support remains significant, no matter the size of your estate at the time of your passing. Your percentage gift will help Stride continue its work and expand its ability to support those in need, providing long-lasting benefits for future generations.
