Putting The Plan Into Action

Meet Tom and Martha. When they were first married, they created a will that included a $75,000 gift to Central. As their family expanded to include three children, they chose to revisit their plans to better safeguard their children's financial future.

Working with their attorney, they updated the terms of their gift so that Central would receive a percentage of their estate rather than a fixed dollar amount. Today, Tom and Martha find peace of mind in knowing their legacy will support both their loved ones and the causes they care about most.
