Share God's love through your will

Jesus calls us to respond to poverty and injustice with our whole lives. What you do now will help families break free from poverty in the future.

Putting your faith into action through a gift in your will could help bring lasting transformation to:

  • a family who lost their home and possessions after an earthquake
  • a community whose health suffers because they don’t have toilets or a water pump
  • a mother and father whose children are suffering from malnutrition

Your gift could mean that, when disaster strikes, you will be helping families to rebuild their lives. You could help a local church train their community to build toilets and a water pump. And help a struggling mother and father give their children the nourishing food they need.

You can leave a gift that will transform lives for generations to come.

The difference your gift could make

By leaving a gift in your will to Tearfund, your love for Jesus can cross cultures, span generations, and help end extreme poverty.

Your gift could help communities identify the resources they already have so they can develop lasting, life-changing solutions.

This is the difference your gift could make:

  • A sewing machine and self-help group can be the start of a small business to help a family pay for medical treatment.
  • Bamboo can be used to make beehives – honey is a sweet source of income that could pay for a child’s school fees.

A gift in your will could mean that a person who has lost all hope feels like a better life is not just possible but within their reach.

By leaving a gift, you will help future generations be free from poverty in the long term.

Every pound you give will provide emergency support and life-changing community transformation to move us closer to the end of extreme poverty.

Val's story

'Giving a gift in my will is handing over the baton to continue the blessings I've been given to other people,’ says Val. ‘The change in their life will affect other people around them, their family, their community.' Listen to Val’s story in the video below.
