The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society’s Post

Regardless of where you are in life — whether you’re just starting out (like me!), building a family, or enjoying retirement — creating a will is an essential step in creating your legacy and protecting your loved ones. For me, having a will is a way to express my love and care to my family, friends, and passions. I encourage everyone to take a moment this month to reflect on your personal circumstances and consider the importance of having a will. You have the power to create a meaningful legacy and make decisions that reflect your values and priorities. Join me and let’s prioritize this important aspect of planning — because your story deserves to be told your way.

August is National Make a Will month! The time is now regardless of your age or income. It’s about more than just your finances - power of attorney, healthcare directives and more are critical planning tools that will aid your loved ones in critical times. Creating or updating your will may not be the most pleasant of tasks but it’s crucial to ensuring the protection of your loved ones and your assets. If making a will seems daunting, I am here to help! I can offer recommendations to qualified estate planning attorneys in your area, as well as free online will writing tools. Feel free to reach out to me any time! #makeawillmonth #estateplanning #legacyplanning #giftplanningdirector #heretohelp

We're halfway through 2024, which sadly means approximately 150,000 more men have been diagnosed with prostate cancer this year. You can make a difference for these patients by giving to our limited-time matching gift fund! The Schwartz Family has stepped forward to match every donation – dollar for dollar – made to ZERO Prostate Cancer, up to $10,000. But you must act fast – this matching gift expires at midnight tomorrow. Our goal is to secure funding that will allow all patients to access help as they face their diagnoses. Give at zerocancer.org/give-now. #ZEROProstateCancer

Through investing in research and innovation, we have witnessed extraordinary breakthroughs in medicine, diagnostics, and scientific knowledge. However some cancers have received little to no investment, so their survival rates have not improved. Join us today on World Cancer Day by spreading the word, making a donation or joining us at Teresa’s Trotters. Because the more we know, the more progress we will make.
