The Circle of Life - a bequest to The Australian Ballet School
Leaving a gift in your Will to The Australian Ballet School demonstrates a commitment that will go well beyond your lifetime. Your gift can be allocated to an area of interest to you if you choose. Just as a circle has no beginning or end, your gift through a bequest will continue to support the future of dance for decades to come.
When the School is advised of your intended gift during your lifetime it enables us to thank you appropriately today, inspire others to consider a gift of this kind in the future, and ensures that your gift will be used as you have intended. We would indeed be privileged to have you as a member of The Circle of Life.
If you are interested in leaving a gift in your Will to the School, would like to have a confidential discussion, or would like to receive more information, please contact Trish Roath on 03 9669 2810 or email philanthropy@australianballetschool.com.au
Correct Wording to leave a gift to The Australian Ballet School
The following wording is a guide for your legal adviser for leaving a gift in your Will to The Australian Ballet School
I GIVE AND BEQUEATH (percentage of Estate or specific sum) to The Australian Ballet School (the School) of 2 Kavanagh Street, Southbank in the state of Victoria, to be used for its general purposes and I DIRECT that the receipt of the treasurer or other proper officer for the time being of the School shall be a good and sufficient discharge to my Trustees and my Trustees shall not be bound to see to the application of this legacy.
You can of course consider a specific amount, percentage of your Estate, or, if you wish, request a particular area of interest for your support.
