Leave a lasting Legacy


Did you know September is Wills month? Now is the time to add the Aoraki Foundation to your Will with this special offer from our partner law firms.


Thanks to the generosity of the South Canterbury property lawyers, this September it is even easier to make a lasting gift to the causes you care about in our local community.

Throughout September, the law firms listed below will provide their professional services at no cost* to add a gift to the Aoraki Foundation to your existing will.

*T&C’s apply - please speak with your local South Canterbury Property Lawyer

Leaving a gift to the Aoraki Foundation enables you to make a bigger impact in your local community. Unlike a one-off donation to a specific charity, gifts given through the Aoraki Foundation are invested in perpetuity, generating income that is distributed annually to community organisations in South Canterbury. This means that a gift from a generous donor like yourself will continue to give back to the causes close to your heart – forever!
