Lifetime of Generosity Digital Legacy Seminar
How would you like to be remembered?
The Catholic Community Foundation (CCF) has designed an interactive planned giving seminar specifically for us! The digital seminar takes about 30 minutes to complete and is composed of videos and reflection opportunities with downloadable workbook prompts. The goal of the seminar is to explore the meaning of Catholic legacy and suggest ways to give smarter now and to benefit future generations. As a participant, you will even have the opportunity to utilize a free will-writing tool included as part of the seminar. So, how would you like to be remembered?
