Leave a gift in your will to the Flying Doctor.
Every day, the Flying Doctor goes above and beyond helping families receive the finest care in the furthest corners of our state. Many times, that care is the difference between life and death.
Gifts in Wills are used to purchase aircraft and vital medical equipment, provide specialist training for our highly skilled frontline staff, deliver essential primary health care services, and build critical infrastructure across Queensland.
We are also able to establish named gifts and endowments within our RFDS Foundation.

Graham’s Story
When my friend Ray passed, I was the executor of his Will. Ray thought long and hard about his legacy and he chose to leave a gift in his Will to the Royal Flying Doctor Service (Queensland Section).
Ray, who was a former cattle farmer, had been transported by the Service a few times, so he knew how important the Flying Doctor is to the people of Queensland.
Ray witnessed firsthand the dedication of our well-trained flight nurses, doctors and pilots, and wanted the Service available for all Queenslanders in the future.
I’m glad that Ray told the Flying Doctor he was leaving them a gift in his Will, because he enjoyed hearing how the Service would use his bequest, and he liked to hear the stories about the people they had helped.
The team at the Flying Doctor showed Ray how his gift would improve healthcare and save lives, and that made him happy.
Ray believed there should be more kindness in the world, and like all great men, he led the way by saving lives and improving the health of his fellow Queenslanders.
