Leave a legacy of hope and healing
Gifts in Wills
Childhood trauma can echo through a lifetime. So can healing.
By leaving a bequest/gift in your Will to Left Write Hook, you can help ensure survivors have access to a safe, supportive place to rebuild strength, find their voice, and reconnect with their bodies.
Your gift helps make sure this work continues, not just today, but for generations to come.
What is a bequest/gift in your Will?
A gift in your Will (sometimes called a bequest) is a way of leaving money or assets to a cause you care about after you’ve taken care of the people closest to you.
It doesn’t affect your day-to-day finances, and it can be updated at any time if your circumstances change.
For many people, leaving a gift in their Will is a simple and meaningful way to create lasting impact beyond their lifetime.
Why leave a gift to Left Write Hook?
Left Write Hook is a survivor-led, research-informed program that combines trauma-aware writing and non-contact boxing.
Our eight-week program supports survivors of childhood sexual abuse and gendered violence to move from surviving to thriving with greater strength, agency and connection.
Recovery takes time. A gift in your will helps make that journey possible for people who may otherwise miss out.
