Perpetual Giving Grows to 50!

This week we partnered with three more New Zealand charities, bringing the total number of charities in the Perpetual Giving community to 50. This is an exciting milestone for us and we are very pleased by the response. We've got a broad range of charitable organisations on board, specialising in everything from arts and culture, to human services, and animal welfare (with plenty more in between). If you are considering leaving a charitable legacy in your will, there will be a charity there to interest you.

Not that we're becoming complacent!As we continue to expand the Perpetual Giving community, we are also planning the delivery of some exciting resource initiatives to help boost the importance of charitable legacies in wills and the provision of a simple online wills service to donors. Joining the Perpetual Giving community for charities is easy. It's a completely free service for charitable organisations, and provides many great benefits, such as resources, networking, and participation in our annual charitable legacies week.

The three Kiwi charities to join us this week are:

Starship Foundation
