You can shine a light into the lives of blind and partially sighted people, even after you’ve gone, by leaving a memento or sum of money to Council in your Will.

Our President’s Circle is a special group of people who’ve included the South African National Council for the Blind in their Will. Leaving a bequest to Council costs you nothing now, reduces the total value of your estate, and saves tax.

Whatever contribution you can make will help transform the lives of the people we serve. To find out more about the President’s Circle, contact us on 012 452-3811 or click here to email us.

...when we finally know we are dying, and all other sentient beings are dying with us, we start to have a burning, almost heartbreaking sense of the fragility and preciousness of each moment and each being, and from this can grow a deep, clear, limitless compassion for all beings.

A bequest or legacy is simply a gift in your Will – a memento or sum of money you want to leave to a friend, your Church, or a favourite charity.
If such a gesture could give a young blind person the chance to lead a useful and independent life, it would be really worthwhile, wouldn't it?

Or if you could restore the eyesight of someone blinded by cataracts, you could be doing more than you ever thought possible. Deciding to leave a bequest to the South African National Council for the Blind costs you nothing now. In fact, by reducing the total value of your estate, it can lead to considerable savings on tax. Only when you no longer need it, will your gift be put to good use to help those who are less fortunate. To top it of - you’ll have the pleasure of knowing that your kindness will be remembered for years, perhaps even generations to come.
