“Being a member of Include A Charity has opened so many doors. It’s given me an opportunity to connect with some of Australia’s leading Gifts in Wills fundraisers as well as access international learnings, research findings and education opportunities. Include A Charity is an exceptional resource for fundraisers and I encourage fellow FIA organisational members to join me in supporting this powerful movement for change that is normalising conversations about the impact of leaving a charitable gift in your Will.”
