Your generosity directly impacts the lives of hundreds of people living with HIV, allowing them to lead happier, healthier lives. Through your bequest, you can help the people we serve plan for a future of hope and stability, ensuring that Bobby’s legacy – and yours – lives on.

We’ve made it easy for you to leave a gift in your Will through GatheredHere. If you choose to leave a gift through your own Will process, it is important to make sure your wishes are reflected – as well as legally binding.
We highly recommend consulting legal representatives when drafting or amending your Will. These professionals can help you navigate any legal details so that your intentions are clearly articulated.
When including BGF in your Will, the process is straightforward to suit your preferences.
