Dear Friend,

As we reflect on the powerful conversations and the community’s enthusiasm for change shown at our 2024 National Annual Conference in New Orleans, we are reminded that more work needs to be done to elevate economic empowerment and secure justice.

August is not only a time to honor the rich tradition of Black Philanthropy Month, it’s also National Make-A-Will Month. It is a moment for us all to consider the legacy we wish to build—a chance to harness your power to make a lasting impact.

The National Urban League stands committed to empowering communities and changing lives every day. That is why we share a way for you to wield the power of your will with FreeWill: a free online estate planning tool. In just 20 minutes, you can protect your loved ones and affirm your commitment to equality and social justice.

Your generosity has already made so much possible. From the laughter of children who can now dream bigger to the gratitude of families moving into their first homes, your support is at the heart of every success story. 

Now, as we look to the future, your legacy gift can be the key to empowering Black Americans and other underserved communities to build wealth and sustain it for the future.

Thank you for your support and advocacy by joining us in tackling all the work that lies ahead. If you have any questions about legacy giving, please contact us at [email protected].

With appreciation,
  

Marc H. Morial

President and Chief Executive Officer
