What footprints will you leave behind?

 

Everyone leaves footprints. They are made by the positive impressions our lives leave on others. Thoughtful estate planning and making a will are means that we have to make a print in the sand, to help others recall our values. Have you made your will?

One way to leave a thoughtful footprint is to sign a new or updated will. Not sure where to start? Visit our planned giving website to access our online wills planner or request a PDF of a Wills Guide. It's a great place to start before meeting with your estate planning attorney so you feel prepared with thoughtful questions while planning for your future.  
 

The Catholic Foundation is a resource as your plan your future and your legacy. Let us help. Contact Cheryl Mansour or Michael George for help with developing a personal solution to meet your charitable goals.
