Partnership for Mission Is It Your Will − or Someone Else’s? All your life you’ve made the decisions about how your assets will be used – about how you’ll provide for yourself, for your family, and for the charitable organizations you believe in. Thank you for caring about the Sisters of Notre Dame. Now, we’d like to help you retain that same control over your legacy – over those ideas and dreams you will leave for future generations. Consider creating an up-to-date, well-planned last will and testament. Here is why a will is so important: • A will provides for each of your loved ones as you judge their needs; • It helps you choose caring, responsible guardians for your minor children; • It designates the people who will administer your estate; and, • A will enables you to make gifts to the charitable organizations that have meant the most to you during your life.
If one or more of the reasons above is important to you, we encourage you to take a look at your will to be sure it is written in a way that accomplishes all of your goals. Further, it’s important to review your will from time to time — because life circumstances change. We want you to be sure your will is still accurate and meaningful. Without a valid will, you put every one of these decisions in the hands of others, including administrators appointed by the court. Think about what that might mean for your family.
We understand that many of you don’t want to think that far into the future, and planning can be a chore. But you’ll gain peace of mind and reassurance when the job is done, and your family will breathe easier, too, knowing that you’ve worked out a financial plan for their future. And yes, if you include the Sisters of Notre Dame in your will, we’ll be grateful, too! Every future bequest that we can count on builds our long-term financial strength, and helps us plan with more confidence. If you have included the Sisters in your plans, please let us know. We would like to say thank you! We’d be happy to help you get started. Please call me at 419-7241352 or via e-mail: gmezinko@toledosnd.org Sincerely,
George Mezinko Partnership for Mission Director 8
