  »How to donate

"Ageing well is about quality of life. Research holds the key to unlocking the possibilities of ageing well."
Donations to the the Ageing Well Foundation to support NARI’s research can be made in many forms. The most common forms of donation include:

 Individual donations
Donations can be made via cheque, cash or credit card to assist medical research. Every dollar counts, no matter how much or how little.

 Corporate sponsorship
Partnerships between philanthropic organisations and corporate businesses (of all sizes) can be a great way for corporates to illustrate their commitment to the community. The Ageing Well Foundation would be happy to discuss opportunities with your business in more detail, to target a unique sponsorship package to maximise benefits for your company and provide support for medical research into ageing.

 Bequests
Anyone aged over 18 years needs to prepare a Will to ensure their wishes are carried out regarding the distribution of assets after their death. By leaving a contribution towards medical research in your will you can make a substantial contribution to the future health of all older people. Details about how you can make a bequest to support NARI’s research is available here ....

 In-memorium gifts and donations in lieu of flowers
By making a donation in memory of a loved one or friend, your donation will ensure that their memory lives on to help others. In memorium donations are recorded on a memorium board which is displayed in the foyer of the National Ageing Research Institute. In memorium donations can also be made as a special tribute for a birthday, anniversary or simply in memory of a friend.

Another way that many families chose to remember loved ones is to encourage donations towards medical research be made in lieu of flowers at a funeral. The name of the person who has passed away will be recorded in perpetuity on a memorium board displayed at the National Ageing Research Institute.

 Donations in lieu of gifts
If you are celebrating a special occasion but do not want friends and family members to give you gifts, why not consider asking them to donation to the Ageing Well Foundation in lieu of a gift? This can be a wonderful way of supporting the Foundation as a large group, and having a great time in the process.

 Fundraising events
As a club or community group, running a community event or activity to raise funds to support medical research through the Ageing Well Foundation can be a great way to assist raise awareness and funds for the vital issue of medical research into ageing. Not only will your efforts assist the community, but by associating your club, group or organisation with this national cause, you can illustrate your commitment to the health of all older people.
