Support Military Families Now and For Years To Come
Military families are widely recognized for their strength and resilience. Their sacrifice and service protect our country. Our Nation’s military families effectively adapt to deployments, relocations, and spouse career changes as a unit –but preparing for the unexpected can be difficult for even the strongest family. August is National Make-A-Will Month, and it is the perfect time to safeguard your legacy for your family and the causes you care about most.
Why Plan for the Future?
Approximately 51% of Americans over 55 do not have a will, and only 18% know the specifics of their parent’s estate plans. These statistics are frightening. One of the safest ways to secure your wishes and your family’s future is to have a will.
A will serves as a roadmap that will guide your loved ones to execute the handling of your financial assets as intended. It quickly provides peace of mind to your family and becomes a testament to your care and consideration for their future and those for which you want to make a lasting impact.
Consider Leaving a Legacy for Military Families
No matter how service impacts military families, they will always need programs to support their financial security, well-being, and quality of life. These opportunities are possible with help from our communities, like the Holms family.
In 2022, NMFA received a gift from John E. Holm, trustee of the William C. Holm Revocable Trust, in memory of their father, the late Major General George P. Holm, U.S. Army (Ret.).
When asked why the Holms family decided to support military families, they shared that they believed in NMFA’s mission and knew it was the right place to align with their commitment to supporting the military, our veterans, and their families.
Secure Your Will and Leave a Lasting Legacy
Amid life’s uncertainties, it is never too early to start thinking about a will or your legacy. It is a proactive plan to ensure your loved ones and the causes you support will be safeguarded. If you choose to support military families through NMFA, you will leave a lasting impact that ensures help, support, and a sense of community are always readily available for families who answer the nation’s call to serve.
