Always Hawthorn Bequest Club
From its first VFL game in 1925, Hawthorn Football Club struggled to make its mark until the club’s first premiership in 1961. Since that first glory, the Hawks have added another twelve magnificent cups to the trophy cabinet over the next six decades.
The club enjoyed a golden era between 1971 and 1991 where it won eight flags, however this success did not equate to long term security and by 1996 Hawthorn was at the point of merger.
Hawthorn Football Club invites you to join the Bequest Club, an integral program within the Foundation, to help ensure the club never reaches that point of uncertainty again, instead remaining strong and viable for generations to come.
By leaving a bequest to the club in your Will, supporters will help Hawthorn remain strong well into the future, providing for their children and grandchildren the same sense of joy and passion they have enjoyed over the years.

WRITE YOUR WILL FOR FREE
Hawthorn Football Club has partnered with Gathered Here, an Australian online Will provider, to make the process of writing your online Will easy and free.
Having a Will is one of the most important steps you can take for your loved ones. Not only does it help reduce future financial and emotional stress, but it also ensures your wishes are honoured.
After providing for loved ones, you also have the option to include a gift to the Hawthorn Football Club, and any other causes that are close to your heart.
Whilst there is no obligation to leave a gift to the Club, a growing number of our members understand that leaving a gift in their Will is one of the most powerful ways they can support the Club to thrive in future generations, without it costing a cent during their lifetime.
