This is our wish for the future –
and one sentence in your Will could make you part of it.

If kindness towards animals has been one of the guiding principles of your life, wouldn’t you enjoy knowing that your voice against cruelty, neglect, greed and ignorance will continue to be heard beyond your lifetime?

Including the Durban & Coast SPCA in your Will is an easy way to ensure that your vision of a cruelty-free world is passed on to the next generation – and that there will always be someone to help when an animal is hungry, hurt, frightened or lost.

Saving a dog won’t change the world. But it will change the world for that dog. By leaving a bequest to the Durban & Coast SPCA in your Will, you could save hundreds of dogs, cats and other pets in years to come. And maybe even change the world a little … making it a kinder place for all animals.

What is a bequest?

A bequest is simply a gift that you make to someone in your Will. It can be anything – from a simple cash amount or item of jewellery, to everything you own. Which type you choose will depend on your personal circumstances – how many beneficiaries you have and the value of your estate.

Why the SPCA?

If your life has been enriched by the faithful companionship of a beloved dog, cat, or other pet, leaving a bequest to the Durban & Coast SPCA is a way of giving something back to the animal world.

As the oldest animal welfare movement in the country, the SPCA boasts well over a century of service to animals in South Africa – and is today considered the foremost authority on animal welfare. Yet we receive no state funding for the work we do.

If your bequest was used to teach children about the rights of all living creatures, it would help to make real change possible. Your gift will help to shelter hundreds of animals in the years ahead, and will secure our future into the next century of our existence.
