Creating a Legacy
A bequest is a wonderful way to give back for future generations to benefit from. It ultimately helps create a better world – that is the power of a legacy! Giving through a community foundation gives you the most flexibility and choice.
There are many reasons people choose to leave a bequest. Some people have been active philanthropists during their lifetime and want to ensure their philanthropy carries on in perpetuity.
Other people have not been able to give as much as they would like during their lifetimes, so in death, after recognising their families, they leave a gift, usually a percentage their estate.
Take the first step.
Why leave a bequest with us?
Local Impact

Effortless Giving
It is as simple as getting in touch with us, and we will help you to add Auckland Foundation to your will. The rest is up to us.
Professionally Managed
All of your funds under management with us are professionally managed with robust governance by volunteer Trustees who are appointed, not elected. Economies of scale lead to better investment returns.
Lasting Legacy
Leave a legacy that will give to the causes you care about in perpetuity and continue to transform lives for generations after you’ve given.
