LEAVING A BEQUEST TO GSQ
Please remember the Society in your will...
Please consider remembering the Genealogical Society of Queensland (GSQ) in your will. After you have provided for your loved ones, a gift to GSQ helps ensure that the joy of family history continues for future generations, perhaps even for your own descendants.
For over 40 years, GSQ has helped people discover their ancestry and connect with their past. Your legacy can help us maintain and expand our unique collections, resources, and facilities, ensuring that our Society will continue to thrive as we approach our centenary.
Every bequest, large or small, makes a meaningful difference.
Why Leave a Bequest?
A bequest is a lasting way to support the work that has brought you enjoyment and connection during your lifetime. Gifts in wills give GSQ the financial flexibility to invest in vital improvements and projects that would otherwise be beyond our reach.
By leaving a gift in your will, you become part of GSQ’s ongoing story, helping future members to discover theirs.
GSQ Appreciation:
Your bequest supports research, education, and the preservation of Queensland’s genealogical heritage for generations to come.
Types of Bequests
You can choose the type of bequest that best suits your wishes:
General purpose: your gift to GSQ is used for general purposes, depending on our needs at the time.
Specific purpose: you specify the purpose of your gift in your will.
Specific bequest: a specific amount.
Residual bequest: this is the remainder of your estate after all other commitments are satisfied.
Proportional bequest: a percentage of your estate is gifted to GSQ.
