Sorting out your will is a task that is all too easy to put off, but things could get messy for those you leave behind if you die without a valid, up-to-date will. Having a will gives you peace of mind that you have made the best provision possible for the people and causes you care about, making it easier on your family and friends if the worst should happen. Northland Community Foundation supports local charities and causes that could be important to you. Add Northland Community Foundation into your will with Wills Westenra or Law North and receive 10% off the cost of creating or updating your will during September and October.
