At The 3H Foundation, we are deeply moved by the enduring kindness of Fred Wellings, a long-time supporter whose generosity has touched many lives. This year, we were honoured to receive a donation from Mr Wellings’ estate—a gift he thoughtfully included in his Will.
With the consent of his family, we will be commemorating Mr Wellings’ legacy by naming one of our group holidays after him. These holidays are more than just a break—they are a lifeline. They offer individuals with disabilities a chance to relax, connect, and enjoy moments of joy away from the daily challenges they face.
The Power of Legacy Giving
Gifts in Wills play a vital role in sustaining small charities like ours. They allow us to plan for the future, expand our reach, and continue offering support where it’s needed most. Every legacy gift, no matter the size, helps us make a real and lasting difference.
If you’re considering leaving a gift to The 3H Foundation in your Will, we’d love to hear from you. Whether you’d like to chat over the phone or visit us in person, we’d be delighted to welcome you to our office and share more about the impact your support can have.
