| ‘A
Will for Life’ is your opportunity to
remember Lifeline WA in your Will and to leave a lasting legacy,
a bequest for future generations.
After providing for
family and loved ones in their Will, many people chose to
nominate Lifeline WA as a beneficiary of their estate. Their
generosity helps us to continue providing vital services to
the community and so becomes a lasting legacy or ‘A

generations, you provide one of the greatest gifts of all
– hope.
