The story of the painted dog
The African Wild dog is the second most endangered mammal in Africa. Their numbers are thought to be less than 5 000, with as few as 300 in the Kruger National Park.
Your Will can change the future for our wildlife.
You can leave a lasting legacy to help preserve our precious endangered wildlife for future generations. Making a contribution is simple, and will help us to make our impact felt.
Why consider a legacy gift?
- Leave a world worth living in: Choosing to remember The Boucher Legacy with a donation in your Will is the perfect way to let your care and compassion for nature continue in years to come.
- Amplify your impact: After your lifetime, it’s possible to make a more significant gift than you might otherwise not be able to afford.
- Enjoy tax benefits: By including charitable gifts in your estate planning, you may reduce or eliminate significant taxes payable upon your death.
- There’s no commitment: Circumstances can change and that’s okay. Because you are not actually making a gift until after your lifetime, you can change your mind and your Will at any time.
What you need to know?
