Ever wonder what is the best way to keep what is yours and provide for people and causes you cherish? What will be your legacy?
One of the most effective tools for establishing your legacy and protecting the security of those closest to you is ensuring that you have an up-to-date estate plan. You can also use that plan to support causes you care about and want to help, including Northwest Vista College and future students.
By creating a will or living trust, you have the ability to decide how your assets will be distributed at your death. You can include provisions, or bequests that indicate to whom you would like to give specific assets or amounts.
Besides naming family members and other loved ones, you can also include bequests to charitable organizations such as ours. When you include a gift to NVC through the Alamo Colleges Foundation, you join a group of instrumental supporters who have made possible beneficial scholarships for deserving students in need and some of our most innovative and effective programs.
When you include a gift to NVC in your estate plan, you will become a member of the NVC Legacy Society, a chapter of the Alamo Colleges Foundation Heritage Society. For more information about the NVC Legacy Society and estate planning, please contact Lynne Dean at ldean12@alamo.edu.
