August is Make-A-Will Month
Creating a will is one of the most important steps you can take to protect your loved ones and plan for the future. This August, YMCA members can create a legally valid will online in about 20 minutes through our partner, FreeWill - at no cost.
As you create your will, you'll also have the opportunity to leave a legacy gift to the YMCA of Greater Charlotte. Your gift is entirely optional, but it can help strengthen our community for generations to come. Those who include the YMCA in their estate plans are welcomed into the 1874 Legacy Society.
