Leave a Lasting Gift
PCYC Queensland relies on the generosity of people like you in our community, to continue with our important work. With your support, we’ll be able to keep making positive changes to the lives of young Queenslanders and a lasting positive impact on the local community.
Your bequest is a gift, or a legacy, which will immeasurably benefit so many community members for many years to come. It will promote an optimistic future for the thousands of young Queenslanders influenced by the vital services we provide to young Queenslanders and other members of the community every year.
A bequest to PCYC Queensland allows you to make a gift which will benefit many, beyond your generation.
How your legacy will live on
“He saw me on the steps of McDonalds and knew I was at a crossroads. We chatted about where my life was heading and before long, I had accepted a position as trainee gymnastics coach at the PCYC where the Policeman I was talking to, worked.”
With your bequest, we were able to help that troubled 17-year-old boy. He went on to become one of PCYC Queensland’s most experienced and awarded trampolining coaches. He was an assistant coach at the 2006 World Championships and has students achieving dreams of their own by claiming multiple State and National titles.
This is just one story of a young person that your bequest and legacy could support.
