Are you a passionate film lover? Do Australian screen stories fill your heart with joy? Make that passion part of your legacy.

Major Gifts and Bequests from visionary supporters are vital to the long-term sustainability of CinefestOZ. They provide the foundation that allows us to champion Australian storytelling, nurture emerging filmmakers, strengthen our industry, and deliver inspiring cultural experiences for communities across Western Australia.

A gift to CinefestOZ, whether made during your lifetime or through a bequest, ensures your passion for film lives on. Your generosity won’t simply honour your own story; it will help shape the stories of tomorrow. It will enable us to invest in new talent, sustain the programs that bring CinefestOZ to life, and create opportunities for future generations to discover, celebrate and be inspired by Australian cinema.

Your story. Your passion. Your legacy – forever woven into the future of CinefestOZ.

Future Fund 1

A legacy gift, or bequest, is a donation made through your will to support a cause you care about. At CinefestOZ, a legacy gift ensures CinefestOZ continues to inspire and educate through the medium of film.

Your gift to CinefestOZ will go where it’s needed most. We promise to maximise your gift’s impact, ensuring it touches as many lives as possible.

Gifts of over $10,000 are publicly acknowledged by CinefestOZ (we will not disclose the amount) in perpetuity. You can also choose to keep your support anonymous if you wish.

And if you ever change your mind about your gift, we’ll respect that decision too.

Your gift will support the growth of CinefestOZ, our community outreach, and education programs, helping to ensure that Australian film continues to enrich lives across regional WA and beyond, for many years to come.

According to what suits your personal situation and preferences, the following wording can be used when creating your will.
