A Will is important regardless of a person’s age, marital status or financial position. When a person dies, it is this document that ensures one’s wishes are met and creates certainty and direction for family and friends left behind.

“This a great opportunity for those who need a basic Will prepared,” says Bobbie Dawson, Executive Director, United Way. “We are grateful to all the firms participating in Will Week again this year, they are helping provide peace of mind to residents in our local community. Thank you.”

All proceeds raised during Will Week will be donated to Northumberland United Way and will be invested into our Community Fund.

This year, Northumberland United Way has set out to raise $850,000 for our 50th Anniversary ‘Local Love’ campaign.
