It’s Include a Charity Week in Australia. Charities nationwide are pushing the message to donors to include their charity in their wills. If you work for a charity and are not aware of what the Include a Charity campaign is about – the Include a Charity campaign is made up of over 140 of Australia’s charities, all working together to encourage more people to include gifts in their wills to their favourite charities.
Include a Charity Week promotes their good work and gives charities a way to work together to increase awareness and visibility of bequests.
