Donate in memory

Honour someone special with a lasting tribute

When someone we love has lived with arthritis, finding a meaningful way to honour their life can bring comfort to family, friends, and everyone touched by their story.

A donation in memory, or in lieu of flowers, is a thoughtful way to celebrate a life and help create a future free from arthritis. Every gift contributes to research, support, and advocacy that will help millions of Australians for years to come.

Advocacy

Once your donation is received, we can send an acknowledgement letter or card to the family, so they know a gift has been made in their loved one’s name. This is optional.

How to make a donation in memory

There are two simple ways to give in memory of someone special.

1. Donate online

Make your donation through our secure online page and tick the “dedicate this donation” box and include the name of the person you’re honouring in the “Honouree name” box. After making the donation, you will be asked if you want to send an online card to the person’s family. This is your choice.

2. Donate by phone

Call us on (02) 9518 4441 to make a donation over the phone. Our team will record the name of your loved one and send an acknowledgement to the family if you wish.

Dedicated donation page for funerals and memorial services

If you’d like to offer guests the chance to donate at a funeral or memorial service in lieu of flowers, we can provide a dedicated online link.

To request this, please get in touch by email on fundraising@arthritisaustralia.org.au. For urgent assistance, please call us directly on phone: 

Thank you

We understand how difficult these times can be, and we are deeply grateful to every family who chooses to honour a loved one with a gift to Arthritis Australia. Your generosity helps lessen the impact of arthritis on Australians, a meaningful and lasting tribute.
