Create Your Own Conservation Legacy During National Make-A-Will Month
August is National Make-A-Will Month, a time to think about the future and the legacy you want to leave behind. Creating or updating your will is one of the most meaningful ways to ensure your wishes are honored, your loved ones are cared for, and the places you cherish continue to thrive.
For those who love the forests, farms, wildlife, and trails of the Tug Hill region, including Tug Hill Tomorrow Land Trust in your estate plans is a simple way to help protect these special places for generations to come. Planned gifts can be made through your will, retirement account, or life insurance policy, allowing your commitment to conservation to extend far into the future.
Why Having a Will Matters
A will is about more than passing along assets. It provides peace of mind by ensuring your wishes are carried out and helping make things easier for those you care about. If it’s been several years since you last reviewed your estate plans, National Make-A-Will Month is the perfect reminder to revisit them and consider the legacy you’d like to create.
Double Your Impact with the Legacy Challenge
There’s never been a better time to make your plans.
Thanks to the generosity of longtime supporters Bob and Carol Keller, every new planned gift commitment made through the end of 2026 will unlock an additional $1,000 gift to Tug Hill Tomorrow Land Trust through the Legacy Challenge, up to $10,000 in matching support. This means your commitment to conservation can make an even greater impact today while ensuring the Tug Hill region remains protected for tomorrow.
