Use Your Will to Make a Lasting Impact

by Katie Gates in Impact

Make Alpha Phi Foundation a Part of Your Legacy

Leaving a legacy means making a lasting impact on your loved ones and those you care most about.  Whether it is through your deeds, your family, or your assets, a legacy moves the world in a positive direction. A will is the first step in creating your legacy.  

Your will is one of the most important documents you can own. It dictates how your assets and possessions will be divided after your lifetime. It ensures your loved ones are financially protected should something happen to you. It provides peace of mind for you and your family. 

Use Your Will to Give 

In addition to caring for loved ones, you can also use your will to extend your support of Alpha Phi Foundation. This gift is simple to make—all it takes is one sentence. You can also update your wishes as life changes to ensure your will meets your needs. Plus, a gift in your will won’t require you to part with assets today, but it allows you to make a big impact on enhancing the lives of women in the future.  

To make this gift: 

  1. Email plannedgiving@alphaphifoundation.org to request sample language to use to make your gift.  
  2. Make an appointment with your estate planning attorney to create your will. If you already have a will, your attorney can draft a codicil to add your gift to the existing document. 
  3. Notify Alpha Phi Foundation of your intention. It would be our honor to thank you and welcome you into Clara Bradley Burdette Society. Plus, your generosity may even inspire others to follow in your footsteps. (Wishes of anonymity will be honored, of course.)  

Create Your Legacy 

When you include Alpha Phi Foundation in your will, you create a legacy of giving and ensure we can continue our work well into the future. Contact us at plannedgiving@alphaphifoundation.org to get started today!
