An amazing gift

By leaving a gift in your will, you can help transform children’s lives in the future.

We help millions of children overseas beat deadly diseases like pneumonia and diarrhoea. And we support children in the UK too, making sure they get a better start in life.

One-quarter of our donations come from people who kindly left a gift in their will - and these legacies have enabled us to achieve big changes for children throughout our history.

  • During the dark days of World War II, we set up safe play areas in bombed-out cities.
  • After the war, we pioneered the first playgroups and after-school clubs.
  • We helped reunite 40,000 children with their families in the aftermath of the Rwandan genocide in 1994.
  • After the devastating hit Asia on Boxing Day 2004 tsunami, we helped children and their families rebuild their lives.
  • We built clinics and schools following the earthquake in Haiti in 2010.

By remembering children in your will, you can help us to go on making history in the future. After taking care of family and loved ones, a small gift to Save the Children will give other children a chance to grow and thrive.

Whatever you decide to leave us, you can be sure it will be used effectively.
