Bendigo Health is proud to participate annually in Include a Charity Week, which aims to normalise the conversation about leaving charitable gifts in Wills.

Have your considered what kind of legend are you?

The life you’ve lived can create a legend that lasts forever when you leave a gift in your Will to help Bendigo Health provide specilised medical equipment and services so more people are treated closer to home and their loved ones.

Recent gifts in Wills have created a lasting legacy and helped us improve the technological advancement of our regional hospital.

 The Frank Read Bequest was dedicated to Bendigo Health's cardiac area and has allowed us to purchase a Cardiac Ultrasound Machine and establish the Frank Read Scholarship Fund for our staff.

 The estate of the late Gordon ‘Chic’ Webster created a legacy for residents at Bendigo Health’s residential aged care facilities, assisting to fund a major redevelopment.

 The estate of the late George Pethard (administered by the Pethard Tarax Charitable Trust) helped fund visitor pods at our residential care facilities in response to COVID-19. Our residents can maintain connection with their loved ones when face-to-face contact is not possible.

Leaving a gift in your Will enables Bendigo Health Fundraising & Foundation to fund programs and purchase vital equipment, adding a level of comfort and kindness to those in need.
