It all starts with a plan.

Creating an estate plan requires you to think about the future when it comes to your assets and money and how you would like them distributed at the end of your life — while also minimizing any tax liabilities. You do not need to be affluent to make an estate plan. Every one of us has an estate.

Most estate planning begins with a Will.

By planning your legacy now, you can ensure that the YMCA’s vital programs continue to support the most urgent needs in our community.
