A Bequest to State Theatre Company
By making a gift to the State Theatre Company of South Australia in your Will, you will not only personally commemorate the inspiration and enjoyment that you have received from the Company over the years, but also contribute to the pleasure of future generations.
Theatre develops the capacity for creative thinking, imagining, problem solving, creative judgement, analysis and response, all of which are important tools for development and learning. With your gift, you will be making an investment in the artistic and educational vibrancy of our city and our State.
Your gift can help us to create a secure financial platform for the years ahead. It will also ensure that we can continue to develop the next generation of South Australian artists and theatre makers.
We set out below a simple form of bequest. Note that this is not offered as legal advice, which should be obtained from your own lawyer or financial adviser.
"I give and bequeath the sum of $______ to the State Theatre Company of South Australia to be used for the principal purposes of the Company. The receipt of an authorised officer of the Company for the time being will be a full discharge to my trustees for the legacy and my trustees shall not be obliged to see to its application."
A legacy can be added to an existing will, in appropriate circumstances, by means of a codicil but, again, advice should be obtained from your lawyer to ensure your intentions are effectively realised.
The form of bequest suggested above provides for the gift to be applied for the principal purposes of the State Theatre Company of South Australia and would allow the Company's Board freedom to use it in the best interests of the Company at the relevant time. If, however, you wish to have your gift applied to a particular purpose of your choosing we invite you to consult with us to ensure your intended objective can be achieved.
You may speak with us in confidence about a bequest or any other gift to the Company by contacting our Development Department.
