LEAVE A LASTING LEGACY
THROUGH YOUR WILL OR TRUST
HAVING A PLAN IN PLACE MAKES SENSE.
Almost every adult can benefit from having a will or trust, regardless of a person’s financial situation or season of life. It is never too early (or too late) to make a plan that will ensure your wishes are carried out and your loved ones are well cared for after you are gone. Perhaps most importantly, your plan can be a way to honor God with the assets He has given you to make a lasting impact for eternity.
Every year, six out of 10 Americans pass away without ever having prepared a valid will or trust. MAF wants to help change this statistic.
Please join us for one of our live Wills & Trusts Educational Webinars.

What others said about leaving a charitable gift in their estate plan
MAF has taken steps to make it simple for you to create a trust at no out-of-pocket costs. MAF partners with Financial Planning Ministry (FPM), a nonprofit organization that provides estate planning services including the drawing up of revocable living trusts. FPM has successfully assisted more than 40,000 members of the Christian community for 40 years, including many MAF staff and supporters. There is no cost to you because MAF pays for the service on your behalf. FPM simply asks you to consider leaving a modest percentage gift from your estate to one of their ministry partners like MAF. This donation will not be distributed from your estate until after your (and, if applicable, your spouse’s) passing.
