You Are Enough to Build a Legacy
The impact of COVID-19 has affected all of us in different ways over the last two years. With quarantine, work from home, and social distance orders, the pace of life has changed. It has also provided a space for thoughtfulness, reflection, and reevaluation regarding what's really important in life: family, health, happiness. Some important questions have begun to surface for families and friends: What if something happens to me tomorrow? Are my loved ones protected? Should I have a plan in place for the future?
According to Black Enterprise, roughly 65% of African Americans have no will or legacy plan in place. Many people are uneasy about legacy planning, because they think they don't have enough - enough money, time, or wealth to make it worth the effort. This is particularly true in the African American community where wealth is hard to build, and even more difficult to pass to the next generation.

So what’s at stake without a plan? Your family’s future!
The ability to transfer your wealth —what you own, who you are, and what you know —to those you love.
This journey is about leaving this life and a legacy. It’s about extending your purpose in this world beyond your presence in this world. Simply put, it’s about helping your family and friends know how you want to be remembered and celebrated. For these reasons,
YOU.
ARE.
ENOUGH.
So, let’s make a plan together!
