Shape the future with a gift in your will
Imagine leaving a legacy that empowers hardworking students and drives research that changes lives. By including Victoria University (VU) in your will, you can support students in discovering their potential.
Your legacy, their future
Leaving a gift to VU in your will isn’t just a donation – it’s a strategic investment that will shape tomorrow’s leaders. Your gift could:
- Break barriers, build futures: Help students overcome barriers and achieve their education goals. Whether they are the first in their family to attend university, from a non-English speaking background or facing financial struggles, your support will provide the stability they need to succeed. Together, we can create opportunities for all students to reach their full potential.
- Empower First Nations students: First Nations students bring incredible resilience and potential to higher education, yet many face significant cultural and financial barriers that can make pursuing a university degree challenging. Your legacy can help remove barriers to education, foster cultural pride, and create lasting change for generations to come. Together, we can ensure that every First Nations student has the opportunity to succeed and shape a brighter future.
- Power research with real-work impact: At VU, our research is focused on creating real change in communities – advancing cancer treatments, protecting the environment, and improving community wellbeing. Our experts work on innovative solutions that create lasting change. With your support, we can continue to drive research with impact where it matters most.
Take inspiration from Lewis, a VU alum who recently created his Will.
Education is the number one driver in improving life outcomes; If you are the first in your family to attend university, you’ll break that chain - your kids are set up to succeed in so many more areas. But what I would love is for it to be able to provide opportunities to people who might not otherwise get them.
Create a legacy that reflects you
Leaving a gift in your Will is a powerful way to support what matters most to you – whether it's advancing research, supporting community projects, or contributing to causes that inspire you. Even a small percentage of your estate – just 1% – can have a lasting impact. No matter what cause speaks to you, your gift can leave a legacy that goes far beyond today.
