August is National Make-A-Will Month – a timely reminder to make creating your Will a priority this year.
According to a 2025 bit.ly/3gGgPhw survey, 76% of U.S. adults don’t have a Will. If you’re one of them, now’s the time to get started. If you already have one, take a moment to review and update it so it reflects your current wishes and family situation.
Having a plan can:
✅ Protect your loved ones
✅ Preserve your legacy
✅ Support the causes you care about
Without a plan, your estate could face delays, unexpected costs, and results that don’t match your wishes.
The Financial Advisors at Covenant Trust will work alongside your legal counsel to help create a comprehensive estate strategy tailored to your goals. Let’s talk about how we can support your legacy planning. @August is National Make-A-Will Month – a timely reminder to make creating your Will a priority this year.
