Make your will this August and make a lasting difference

Each August, Make-A-Will Month reminds us of one of the most thoughtful, empowering steps we can take for the people and causes we care about: creating or updating a will. It’s an act of love, preparation, and legacy – and it’s often much easier than most people think. 

Many are surprised to learn: 
 - Anyone with assets or loved ones to protect can benefit from having a will.   

- Creating a will is often simpler and more affordable than expected. 

 - You can revise your will at any time as your circumstances or priorities change. 

- Including a charitable gift in your will helps ensure the causes you care about are supported for generations to come. 

Baptist Health Foundation is committed to strengthening care across Kentucky and southern Indiana. Every day, generous donors help us improve lives through funding vital healthcare services, programs and advancements. By including a gift to Baptist Health Foundation in your will, you become a part of that legacy, extending your impact far beyond your lifetime. 

Make-A-Will Month is also a timely reminder to review your full estate plan, including: 
 - Wills 
 - Powers of attorney 
 - Beneficiary designations 
 - Advance directives 

These documents reflect your wishes and protect the people and values you hold most dear. 

Whether you’re starting from scratch or updating an existing plan, now is the perfect time to ensure your legacy supports what matters most to you.
