Your gift is precious. We will make it count.
Help ensure that groundbreaking medical research is translated to into real and valuable treatments.
Your legacy
Wesley Research Institute was established 29 years ago and continues to be the official research organisation of UnitingCare. We only invest in research that has been rigorously assessed for scientific merit by an Independent Research Committee. Studies have shown that every dollar invested in research returns $3.90 in benefits to the population.
We support research initiated by people on the frontline who really know the value of clinical research – the doctors nurses and allied health professionals in our hospitals. They are driven by a desire to give patients better treatment options and improved quality of life for a range of diseases and health issues.
If you’re already thinking about your personal legacy and the possibility of including Wesley Research Institute in your Will, we can’t thank you enough for considering us. Naturally, looking after your family and friends comes first. All we ask is that after remembering them you would consider leaving a gift in your Will to Wesley Research Institute.
Most gifts in Wills (or bequests) are made by ordinary, hard working people who want to make a positive difference to their community. A gift in your Will to Wesley Research Institute will help ensure that groundbreaking medical research is translated to into real and valuable treatments.
How to leave a gift in your Will
A gift in your Will to Wesley Research Institute will fund critical research that achieves a lasting impact for generations to come. There are different ways you can leave a gift in your Will:
Percentage share gift
This is the most flexible option, and you do not need to know how much your estate will be worth just the share you’d like to leave to each beneficiary.
Residual gift
Another way to contribute is to leave a percentage of what is left after you have provided for your loved ones.
Pecuniary gift
You may wish to leave a fixed sum of money (known as a pecuniary bequest).
Specific Purpose gift
You may wish to leave a gift for a specific type of research or program.
