AUGUST IS NATIONAL MAKE-A-WILL MONTH! MAKE YOURS FOR FREE WITH ONE OF OUR PRO-LIFE PARTNERS!
More than half of all adults have not written a will, leaving their plans for their family’s future and their own legacy uncertain. If you’re in that 50%, maybe you’ve thought about writing a will, but having to pay for it or spending the time to make one has been keeping you from taking the first step.
Pro-Life Wisconsin is changing that through our partnership with My Legacy Will and My Catholic Will. Their online will-making forms are simple to use and FREE to you when you use promo code PROLIFEWI at checkout.
