On May 4th at noon east coast time, you will learn how to protect your family with an estate plan, the myths about having an estate plan and how you can benefit today. It is estimated 70% of Americans do not have a will or other estate plans. Estate planning does not have to be complicated.

Wills, trusts, durable powers of attorney, health care proxies, and living wills will be covered. This presentation will also touch on charitable giving, including lifetime gifts and gifts through a will, trust, or beneficiary designation. There will also be time for general questions and answers. Additionally, you will learn about NBP’s Braille for Life Alliance and its impact on the future of braille.
