This simple act of caring would enhance thousands of lives and would help to fight disease, inspire at-risk youth, sustain cultural organizations, provide meals to isolated seniors and preserve the environment. Everyone can be a philanthropist, and everyone can make a difference when making a bequest to a charity. I can't afford a will. I don't need a will. I'm not wealthy enough to have a will.
People can make a positive statement.
I'm going to make sure that everything I worked so hard for during my lifetime benefits my family and that my children are taken care of in the manner I choose. And that long after I leave this earth, my values will still be reflected in my community by my legacy of support. The message is quite simple. By acting now, people can continue to have a lasting impact on their families and on their communities.
