Having a Will is very important. It ensures the people who matter most in your life are taken care of. Without a Will, your estate is distributed according to a legal formula. This might mean your assets don’t end up being distributed according to your wishes.
That’s why The Salvation Army’s Wills Days are so important.
We would be grateful if you would please consider leaving a financial Gift (bequest) in your Will to The Salvation Army to help us support those most in need in our community. Thank you

FAQs:
How does it work?
Our Partner Solicitor, Povey Stirk, is generously assisting the community by donating their time to help people prepare a Simple Will. A Simple Will, for example, is one that leaves the person’s estate to their spouse, children, and one or more charities. The Solicitor will be able to advise whether your Will is simple, and if not, they can advise you and you might have to pay an additional cost to have it written.
-
The cost for a Simple Will is $100 per person or $150 for a couple plus online booking fee of $0.50. These proceeds are utilised by The Salvation Army for a social welfare program in the local community.
-
The appointment is with a qualified Solicitor who will review your completed form and ask for any additional information.
-
Duration of appointments is 30 minutes.
Do I need to bring ID with me?
Yes, please bring proof of identification.
Do I have to leave a Gift (bequest) in my Will to The Salvation Army?
There is no obligation. However we would greatly appreciate you giving consideration to leaving a financial Gift in your Will to enable us to support more people experiencing homelessness, domestic violence, poverty and natural disasters. After looking after your family, leaving even a small percentage of your Estate (eg 5%) can make such a difference to those in need in our community, and you can nominate that your Gift be applied specifically to The Salvation Army in the Northern Territory.
What is the Honoured Friend Program?
By leaving a gift in your Will to The Salvation Army you will be joining a group of like-minded individuals who, like yourself, are committed to ensuring that the kindness and compassion you have lived by will go on helping others now and in the future. You’ll have the option to leave your Will with The Salvation Army for safe-keeping.
When you let us know that you have included The Salvation Army in your Will, we would like to honour your kindness and generosity. You will be welcomed as an Honoured Friend. You will receive invitations to special functions, tours and access to many of the programs we run for the Australian community, and it is up to you if you wish to attend.
Thank you for supporting the work of The Salvation Army and giving Hope where its need most.
