Dear advocate,

It's Asian American and Pacific Islander Heritage Month! If there is one thing that history has taught us, it's the importance of preserving the legacies of the AAPI community, not only this month, but every month. The next generation needs to know our histories, our legacies, and our stories.

So this AAPI Heritage Month, we have a call to action that may surprise you: to pass your story forward by preserving your own legacy through your will

Why create a will? Here are a couple of reasons: 

  • It's your legacy. Your will is your opportunity to support your loved ones, define your legacy on your own terms, and pass your own story forward. 
  • It's essential. Everyone needs a will, and creating one can even be a form of economic empowerment — especially since communities of color have often been excluded from conversations about wealth transfer. 
  • It's free. We have invested in a partnership with FreeWill to make this process more accessible and affordable for all. Create your own free plan online, in a matter of minutes: 
ESTABLISH MY LEGACY

We believe in documenting and preserving the powerful legacies within our community, and sharing this free resource is one step to help us get there. 

This AAPI Heritage Month, honor the legacies that brought us here by establishing your own. 

Many thanks,

Thu Nguyen
