Plan a Gift for the Future

Planning your legacy is easier than you think. FreeWill is a free online tool that walks you through writing a will or trust. It takes about 20 minutes, and you can use it on your own or as a starting point before meeting with an attorney.

Tell Us about a Planned Gift

Have you already included GRID Alternatives in your will or trust? Thank you. We would love to know about your gift so we can thank you properly. We also know plans change, and that’s okay. Telling us about your gift today does not lock you into anything for the future.

Non-Probate Assets

Do you have a retirement account, life insurance policy, or another asset that is not part of your will? These are called non-probate assets. You need to plan their beneficiaries separately. Use this free online tool to name GRID Alternatives as a beneficiary for one or more of these accounts.
