A Legacy of Kindness: Why Rachel is Remembering PETA in Her Will
One powerful way to create a legacy that will benefit animals long into the future is to include PETA in your will.
This Free Wills Month, we’re celebrating PETA Augustus Club members like Rachel Sexton, who made the compassionate decision to include PETA in her legacy plans.
Rachel’s Story
For as long as I can remember, I’ve felt a deep connection to animals. Even as a child, I recognised that each animal has a unique personality and a desire to live free from harm. They feel pain just like we do, and we should do everything in our power to ensure that animals do not endure unnecessary suffering.
Throughout my life, I’ve made choices that reflect this belief – supporting organisations like PETA, standing against cruelty, and advocating for stronger protections for animals. I’m especially moved by PETA’s undercover investigations, which have exposed abuses I never imagined existed. These revelations didn’t just strengthen my resolve to live more compassionately – they inspired me to help create meaningful, lasting change.
One campaign that resonates deeply with me is PETA’s work to stop animals from being used for entertainment. Seeing wild animals confined to cages in zoos or forcing them to perform in circuses denies them everything that makes life natural and fulfilling. PETA’s work to end these practices is vital because it can result in animals being freed from a life of exploitation.
When I thought about my legacy, including PETA in my will felt like the right decision. Animals are an essential part of our life on Earth. They fill us with awe when we see the amazing things they can do and the wonderful powers they have. We can be moved to tears watching them run free, but we can also be devastated seeing them exploited and harmed.
Leaving a gift in my will is my way of ensuring that PETA’s work continues – so that more animals can live in peace, without fear, long into the future.
