Suggested Wording for a Will

Section for Solicitors and Supporters

Including Fighting Blindness in your Will is a beautiful and lasting way to support groundbreaking vision research, patient services, and advocacy for those affected by sight loss across Ireland.

A legacy gift, no matter the size, helps us continue our crucial work to find cures for blindness and support those already living with vision impairment. Including a clear clause in your Will ensures your gift will reach Fighting Blindness safely in the future and be used as you intend — to fund research, support, and hope for generations to come.

Below are sample wordings that your solicitor can use when preparing your Will.

For a Gift of a Fixed Sum or Specific Item

“I give the sum of €_______ or I bequeath (the item specified) to Fighting Blindness, of 21 Hill Street, Dublin 1, and I direct that the receipt of the Treasurer or other proper officer for the time being of the said organisation shall be proper and sufficient discharge for the same.

Why This Matters

Your generosity will help Fighting Blindness continue to:

  • Fund innovative vision research to find cures for retinal diseases.
  • Support individuals and families impacted by sight loss through counselling and peer networks.
  • Advocate for vision health, equal access to treatments, and inclusive policies across Ireland.

Every legacy gift creates a ripple of hope — from today’s discoveries to tomorrow’s breakthroughs. Without the support of generous people like you, we could not continue advancing science and changing lives.
