It's More Than Just a Gift in a Will

A gift in your Will is more than a financial contribution. It's a way to leave a lasting legacy and continue supporting the causes that matter most to you.

After providing for the people you love, you may choose to leave a gift to help create a better future for others.

For many people, it's a meaningful way to ensure the values they hold today continue to make a difference for generations to come.

This Free Wills Week (7-13 September), Starick and our bequest partner Willed invite you to consider the impact you would like to leave behind.

Because every legacy has the power to change lives.

A Will is one of the most important gifts you can leave behind.

It gives you peace of mind that the people you love are cared for and that your wishes are clearly known.

Take a moment to consider:

✔ Who you want to provide for

✔ What you would like to leave to family and loved ones

✔ Whether your Will is up to date

✔ What causes and organisations matter most to you

Once your loved ones are provided for, even a small gift in your Will can help create a safer future for women and children experiencing family and domestic violence.

Free Wills Week is 7-13 September, in partnership with Starick's bequest partner, Willed. It's the perfect time to put your wishes in place and consider the lasting impact you would like to leave.

Starick’s CEO and management team were pleased to attend the Centre for Women's Safety and Wellbeing launch of Workforce FDV, Western Australia’s new Family and Domestic Violence Workforce Entity. The event brought together organisations from across the state committed to strengthening capability, consistency, and collaboration across WA’s FDV response system.

This launch represents an important milestone for Western Australia. Building stronger, safer responses to family and domestic violence requires shared understanding, coordinated effort, and sustained action — and Workforce FDV will play a key role in supporting that work.

Last week, we were delighted to welcome Starick donors, Board Chair and members, and staff to our Donor Appreciation Event at The Left Bank .

The evening provided an opportunity to connect, reflect, and celebrate the incredible community of supporters who stand alongside women and children experiencing family and domestic violence.

A highlight of the evening was hearing from Laura, one of our dedicated Mobile Outreach Workers, who shared the story of a client whose life was transformed through timely support and compassionate care. Her presentation offered a powerful reminder of the real impact donor generosity has on the lives of those we support every day.

Guests enjoyed drinks, delicious snacks, and meaningful conversations while learning more about the difference their contributions make.

A special thank you to The Left Bank, who generously donated the venue space, w**e, and a platter for the event. Their support helped make the evening truly special.

Most importantly, thank you to every donor who attended and continues to invest in safer futures for women, children and young people in our community. We couldn't do this without you. 💜
