Ensuring your legacy is honoured
14th of July, 2025
Did you know that around half of all adult Kiwis don't have a Will?
That's a huge number of New Zealanders who haven't made their wishes known, potentially leaving their loved ones with unnecessary stress and complications during an already difficult time.
Making a Will is one of the most important things you can do to protect your whānau and ensure your legacy is honoured. It's not just about assets; it's about making sure your wishes are clear for everything you care about – from guardianship for your children to how you want your funeral to be handled.
Beyond caring for your loved ones, a Will is also a powerful way to make an ongoing, profound impact in the lives of others by including a gift to a charity you're passionate about.
At Aviva, we deeply appreciate every gift in a Will, no matter the size. These powerful acts of generosity create a lasting legacy, helping us continue our vital work supporting individuals and families in our community. If you're considering leaving a charitable gift, we invite you to consider including Aviva in your Will.
📝 Simple Steps to Peace of Mind (and a lasting impact!):
- Consult a lawyer: For personalised advice and complex situations.
- Use online services: Platforms like Gathered Here and Public Trust offer straightforward online Will creation options, making it easy to include charitable bequests.
Your Will is your final act of love and planning for those you leave behind. Let's make sure your intentions are clear, and your loved ones are taken care of, while also extending your generosity to a cause close to your heart.
