Leaving a Legacy

Why Your Bequest Matters

Leave a Legacy of Safety and Empowerment

Your legacy can be a beacon of hope for countless wāhine and tamariki seeking refuge from domestic violence.

By including Waikato Women’s Refuge – Te Whakaruruhau in your will, you ensure that future generations have access to safety, support, and the resources they need to rebuild their lives.​

Every year, we assist over 6,000 women and children affected by domestic violence in the Waikato region. Our services range from 24/7 crisis support to safe housing and community outreach. However, the demand for our services continues to grow, and we rely on the generosity of individuals like you to meet this need.
