Make a way for all you love

Dear friend,

August is National Make-A-Will month! This month encourages Americares to ensure a sustainable, secure future as we continue saving lives and improving health for people affected by poverty or disaster. Our vision starts with our supporters taking care of themselves and their loved ones.

We believe that health is a human right, and we also believe that everyone deserves to exercise agency over the decisions that affect the people and causes close to their hearts.

That’s why we’ve invested in a partnership with FreeWill. Their online resource allows you to create your will in just 20 minutes at no cost, so you can:

• Document important financial and healthcare decisions
• Protect the people and pets who make your life special
• Plan for the distribution of your assets

If you wish, you can include a gift to Americares in your plans. While your contribution will cost nothing today, you will sustain our many efforts for generations to come — from our programs that provide more than $1 billion in lifesaving medicine and supplies to 85 countries a year on average, to our Emergency Response team who are among the first on the ground delivering essential health services to communities in need after major environmental and humanitarian disasters, such as the Türkiye and Syria earthquakes, invasion of Ukraine, and much more.

This National Make-A-Will month, help create a world where every person — everywhere — has a fair and just opportunity to live their healthiest life — all while prioritizing your well-being.

With gratitude,

Christine Squires
President and CEO
Americares
