Make Your Plans Matter

 

Creating a will costs nothing today - but brings peace of mind for the future.
 

Through our partnership with The Planned Legacy Program, you can create a legal will at no cost and leave a legacy that reflects your values. A gift in your will to Habitat for Humanity Monterey Bay costs nothing today but ensures your impact lives on – for generations.

​Why Create a Will?
A will is the only legal document that ensures your wishes are known. It allows you to:
- Name guardians for minor children
- Choose who receives your belongings
- Appoint someone you trust to carry out your wishes

 

Planning now helps your loved ones later. It’s easy, safe, and takes just 20 minutes or less.
