Donating in memory of a loved one

Sometimes, family and friends wish to celebrate the life of a loved one by making a donation to the Wilderness Society in their memory. To honour a lifelong nature-lover, this can be a wonderful gesture in lieu of flowers.

Donate by advertising in the death notices

Many people choose to honour the memory of a loved one in the death notices. If you’d like to use this space to encourage friends and family to make a donation, here is some suggested wording you can use:

In memory of ____________________
Please donate to the Wilderness Society in lieu of flowers on 1800 030 641 or supporter.wilderness.org.au/donate

Requesting donations in your memory

A gift to the wild  lasts much longer than the flowers at a funeral—and for many of us, it’s something we’d like at our own funerals. It’s a good idea to state this preference in your Will so that your executor can ensure this wish is met. If you have any questions about bequests or donating money on behalf of loved ones, please don’t hesitate to call our friendly staff on 1800 030 641 or email [email protected].
