choose to leave a gift in their will to the ACT, ensuring
their love for animals lives on. To help supporters make

the three pillars of our work, so supporters can feel
confident in the lasting difference their gift will make.

choosing to contribute in this lasting way. We extend
our sincere gratitude to everyone who has included us
in their legacy planning.
