A card will be presented to the family with a list of donors and any messages received with donations approximately six weeks from the first donation. All donors will be thanked and provided with a receipt.

Please download the donation form to distribute. If you would like our assistance in providing printed forms and/or donation envelopes, please contact us.

Gifts in Will

Have you considered leaving a gift in your Will or a bequest to Icon Cancer Foundation? Your support will help Icon Cancer Foundation improve access to clinical trials for patients and enable doctors, allied health and nurses to initiate trials.

After caring for loved ones in your Will, you may consider leaving part of your estate to a charity of your choice. By leaving the Icon Cancer Foundation a gift in your Will, regardless of size, you will be leaving a lasting legacy that will be greatly appreciated.

You may choose where you would like your donation to be used, either on a specific trial or cancer type, or for a particular patient support initiative.

Residual – Where after you have nominated gifts to your loved ones the remainder of your estate is donated
Percentage – Where you determine a percentage or fraction of your estate to be donated which means the gift isn’t affected by changes to your estate over time
Specific – Where you specify exactly what you would like to donate from your estate
Whole – Where you leave the entirety of your estate, which is usually when there is no other family or friends that you would like to leave a gift to
