Include the Foundation in your estate planning & we'll be "eternally" grateful

You can make a difference for years to come by including the Women Lawyers Association of Michigan Foundation in your estate planning. A national study of wills and estates showed that only 3 percent of Americans provide for a charitable bequest at death. In Michigan, only 2.8 percent leave bequests, although 81.5% of Michigan residents give annually to non-profits during life. Bequests can take a number of forms, traditional or imaginative. Donors may give a specific dollar amount, or a percentage of the estate. They may choose to leave the "rest and residue" of the estate to charity, namely, what is left after bequests to heirs. Even IRAs or retirement plans can be part of a bequest, and may have certain tax advantages for the estate.

 

Persons who wish to favor the WLAM Foundation in their will or estate plan should see an attorney or other professional who specializes in estate planning.
