At Presbyterian Support South Canterbury our vision is a community where all people can make the most of their strengths and feel included, valued and safe.
We assist and encourage people facing life’s challenges through the provision of a range of services in response to the changing needs of individuals and family/whanau in the wider South Canterbury Community.
Unemployment, poverty, family disputes, mental illness, aging, isolation and social disadvantage are just some of the life circumstances that our services are dealing with. Enliven Aged Care and Family Works are working everyday with local people in our community with these issues and with your donation or bequest, it gets used locally.
Leaving just 1% of your ‘treasure chest’ as a bequest will enable us to serve and carry out the work that we do, and have continued to do, in our community for over 100 years.
There are several different ways to give
- You can leave a specific gift, an amount of money or a specific asset that you wish to nominate
- You may leave a gift from the residue of your estate. This means that after your family is taken care of, you can leave part or all that is left from your estate – the residue – to PSSC
- You can leave a percentage of your estate or a specified cash amount to PSSC
- You can directly gift land or property
- You can mention PSSC as a beneficiary of your life insurance policy
- You can leave a bequest to a specific PSSC – Enliven or Family Works programme or activity
Pat Waite – bequester
“It’s said the only guarantee in life is death, and while the end of life is inevitable, we can control what happens to our assets after we die. I know that by leaving a gift to Presbyterian Support in my Will, I am ensuring that what mattered to me in my lifetime will be looked after when I’ve gone.”
