Your gift for the future — exceptional healthcare for West Australians at all stages of life
It starts with you
Health and happiness go hand in hand. At Charlies Foundation for Research, our commitment to long term patient care solutions is driven by a desire to see our community happy, healthy and thriving. But we cannot achieve those goals without the committed support of people like you.
You know how important it is to feel safe, supported and trusting when faced with medical needs. And you know that good healthcare is always going to be important.
By leaving a gift in your Will to the Foundation, you will be helping protect future generations of Western Australians. You’ll be ensuring them the best possible medical treatment, when they need it most.
The only way that patient care, outcomes and quality of life can improve is through breakthroughs in research. By leaving a gift in your Will to the Foundation, you will have a lasting impact on your family and community, by ensuring this research and discovery by some of Sir Charles Gairdner and Osborne Park Hospitals’ brightest staff can continue.
With people like you beside us, we can change and save lives.

Why make a Will?
A Will is a legal document outlining how to distribute your assets and estate after your death. But in reality, a Will does a lot more.
At a time of emotional stress, your Will provides your loved ones with a clear understanding of your wishes, avoiding unnecessary uncertainty and at times, conflict.
How to leave a gift in your Will
If you are considering leaving a gift in your Will for the first time or wanting to revisit your current Will, Charlies Foundation for Research is a trusted partner who will ensure that your gift carries out your vision for the future. To ensure your gift is recorded correctly we recommend engaging a solicitor.
If you’d like to discuss leaving a gift to the Foundation, please contact the Foundation’s Chief Executive Officer, Vicki Rasmussen for a confidential chat on (08) 6457 6317.
