Margaret* and Robert * are very familiar with what it is to be community spirited, knowing that many people are less fortunate than others and need some help.
The couple made a decision several years ago that they could answer that call by leaving a bequest to Presbyterian Support Otago (PSO).
“Robert and I respect what PSO does for people who need help,” says Margaret. “They care for others, whether it’s a young child, a family in need or an older person.”
Robert has since sadly passed away, but Margaret remains committed to the decision the couple made by leaving a bequest.
“I’m a member of the Presbyterian Church and for many years we would have members of PSO coming to our church services, telling us about the work they do in the community, and the difference they are able to make.”
As well as her connection to PSO through church, Margaret also has a connection to PSO through her grandmother, who was a resident at Ross Home. Margaret knows that she was cared for with kindness and love.
Making the decision to leave a bequest to PSO was a simple one that both Margaret and Robert knew would help the provision of community services for those in need.
