We are already reaching more than two million children every school day with life-changing school meals. We believe that, through the generosity and kindness of people who leave gifts in their wills, we can end world hunger.

What type of gift can I leave in my will to Mary’s Meals? 

When writing your will, you can choose to leave a gift to Mary’s Meals in several ways. 

  • A gift of money in your will. You could also choose to leave a specific sum of money to support our work. 
  • A share of your estate. You can leave a share of, or the remainder of, your estate to us – even gifting 1% of your estate to Mary’s Meals will have a huge impact. One of the advantages of doing it this way is that the overall percentage you decide to donate will stay the same. So, you don’t need to worry about changing your will if you have less to leave than you expected. 
  • A specific gift in your will. If you wish, you can choose to leave a specified item. This could be something valuable such as an antique, shares or a property. If you have already chosen to leave a gift in your will to Mary’s Meals, we would love to be able to thank you and include you in our exclusive supporter communications and event invitations, giving you a unique insight into our life-changing work.
