What type of gift can I leave to GetUp?

We ask GetUp members to leave a residual bequest if they can. A residual bequest is one in which you leave a portion of your estate to GetUp. It’s commonly stated as a percentage of your estate residue, or the amount that’s left over once you’ve taken care of your loved ones and expenses.

Residual bequests are so beneficial because:

  1. They hold their value over time, regardless of inflation
  2. They automatically adjust to changes in your estate’s value
  3. You can make sure your loved ones are taken care of first.

If you prefer, you can nominate a specific amount of money to be left to GetUp in your Will. These gifts are referred to as pecuniary bequests.

Letting us know

When you leave your bequest to GetUp, it would be great if you could let us know. You don’t have to tell us, but we’d love to have the chance to thank you personally – and talk to you about the different ways your visionary gift could be used. It’s also very helpful for us to know that members are supporting the movement in this way.
