Provide a Gift in Your Will

Become a Guardian Angel and help children in foster care to achieve their dreams

Create a legacy

Leaving a gift to The Pyjama Foundation in your Will is a special way to make a lasting and positive difference to the lives of children living in out-of-home care.

Your support helps us to deliver our life-changing mentoring program which benefits not only young people, but also their families.

By extending your support to The Pyjama Foundation through a Gift in your Will, you have the unique ability to change lives well into the future – leaving a legacy that will have you recognised as a ‘Guardian Angel’. 

You will help future generations of children in care gain access to a learning mentor who will help them to achieve their dreams.

You will help children who have experienced trauma to build resilience, self-efficacy and confidence to propel in their education allowing them to soar higher in their future.

Where your legacy goes

Not only will your gift provide young people their very own special Pyjama Angel mentor, it can also support The Pyjama Foundation in the following ways:

  • Learning Resources
    Learning Resources such as books, games, puzzles and activities play a fundamental role in making learning more fun for children. The Pyjama Foundation currently has 11 locations for our resource centre – available for our Pyjama Angels and children to use during their visits. 
  • Camp for kids in care
    Each year, The Pyjama Foundation put together a special camp for foster children and their families. The aim of this camp is to give children in care an outstanding life experience, one that they will never forget, while providing the carers some rare respite, peace of mind, and relaxation time. The camp is a chance for the children ‘to just be kids’ – an opportunity for them to engage in activities they may have never experienced before. Some of these children have never been on a holiday, so it is a special treat for them to have a week of non-stop fun.
  • Research
    Research plays a pivotal role in improving educational outcomes for children in out of home care. The Pyjama Foundation is continuously engaging in research to support the key components of the Love of Learning Program to understand the key attributes of resilient learners.

How do I leave a Gift in Will to The Pyjama Foundation?

If you are considering leaving a bequest or gift to The Pyjama Foundation, you have a number of options. You can:

  • Specify a dollar amount or a percentage of your estate, or an asset
  • Leave a percentage of the residue of your estate, after other specific legacies have been fulfilled
  • Provide a share of your estate in the event that some of the principal beneficiaries do not survive you
  • Include The Pyjama Foundation as beneficiary in your life insurance policy and reap the tax benefits

It is recommended you discuss your preferred option with your loved ones and your solicitor. 

Get in touch with us

Why I’m leaving a legacy

We hope our gift will help more children receive their own Pyjama Angel. We also hope that our Gift will enable The Pyjama Foundation to expand into more areas where there is a need. We are honoured to be able to leave this Gift and know that when we are gone our legacy will live on.
