Leave a Gift In Will

By leaving a gift in your Will, you’re helping achieve the long-term  vision of The Pyjama Foundation - to provide children in foster care with vital support.

A gift in your Will is a powerful legacy that will continue changing children’s lives, long after you’re gone. You will forever be The Pyjama Foundation’s Guardian Angel.

You can help future generations of children in care gain access to a learning mentor through The Pyjama Foundation. You will be helping children who have experienced trauma to build resilience, self-reliance 
and confidence to propel them into a better future.

Deciding to leave a gift in your Will is an important decision.


Once you have met the needs of those you love, a gift in Will to The Pyjama Foundation ensures that vulnerable children in care receive the vital support they need for a brighter, resilient future.

We are incredibly grateful that you have thoughtfully considered The Pyjama Foundation.
