What is a memorial donation?
In memory donations are a meaningful way to honour the memory of a loved one while making a difference to others.
They can help people living with MS in a number of ways:
- In memory gifts can be sent instead of flowers at a funeral service. In the past, these were called funeral envelope donations, and while we still have envelopes, we also recognise that in a digital world that our In Loving Memory websiteopens in new tab is a wonderful way to honour a loved one's memory.
- In memory gifts can be given in honour or as a tribute gift to a loved one to remember someone special that may no longer be with us. This gift allows your loved one's name to be associated forever with a positive difference for people who have MS. We can customise this to suit your needs, you can give a donation now so you can see the impact live on, or give it later as a gift in Will so your estate/bequest gift will honour your loved one.
- Honour your lived one by becoming a regular giver or using a special commemoration, such a birthday, anniversary or calendar event to honour them.
