Gifts in Memory
There are a number of ways that you can give in memory of a loved one, read more below.
Make a Gift in Memory of a Loved One
When you make a donation in memory of someone who is recently deceased, Blind Low Vision NZ will send a letter of acknowledgement to the bereaved family to let them know that you have made a gift. We will notify the family after approximately 2 – 3 weeks, once all donations in memory of their loved one have been received.
