Bequests
One of the most powerful ways of creating an educational opportunity at The University of Auckland is by making a gift in your will. This is called a bequest (or legacy). A bequest is a unique gift, which reflects your own interests, passion and vision for the University's future. Giving by bequest costs very little now, yet it gives a great deal of satisfaction to know that your future gift will live on.
What your bequest gift can do
Scholarships for students attending The University of Auckland are often made possible through bequests. Providing a scholarship or prize in your name, or in the name of someone you choose to honour, establishes a wonderful living memory. Bequests can also be made to fund teaching or research positions at all levels or to help the University buy highly valued but expensive resources.
