A Donor’s Story
A concerned call from an attorney: “I have a client that doesn’t know where to turn. Can you help her?”
When we met, her burden was obvious and heavy. After recently losing her husband, she had decisions to make, business to handle, and things she wanted to do. Most importantly, she wanted to honor the memory of her husband. And through all of this, she was grieving.
Give5
For many Americans, their charitable dollars are invested close to home. Whether it’s an organization that has touched their life in a meaningful way or a cause they are passionate about, when it comes time to donate, they want to see the dollars make a difference in their community.
It’s no different when it comes to their estate planning. People want to make a lasting impact on what matters most to them. That’s where our Give5 initiative comes in. With a gift of 5% in your estate plans, our community will benefit forever.
