A Free Estate Planning Resource for Our Community
At Manchester Community Library, our mission centers on empowering our community with knowledge, connection, and accessible resources. Just as the Library provides tools for lifelong learning, we believe in giving our patrons access to resources that help build a secure future.
Every August, communities across the nation observe National Make-A-Will Month as a reminder to take a simple, essential step toward protecting the people and causes you love. Estate planning is often thought of as complicated, expensive, or reserved for later in life, but taking control of your future is something everyone can do today.
To help make this process simple and accessible, we are proud to connect our community with a free, secure online estate planning tool through our partner, FreeWill, because having a clear plan in place empowers you to:
- Protect Your Loved Ones: Name trusted guardians for your children and pets.
- Specify Your Wishes: Define exactly how you want your property and personal belongings handled.
- Organize Your Assets: Coordinate beneficiary designations for accounts like 401(k)s, IRAs, and life insurance policies.
This August, we invite you to take advantage of this free community resource and gain peace of mind for the future.
