You Can Support WLRP With a Planned Gift

​

As a WLRP supporter, you have demonstrated your commitment to helping us reclaim the Wôpanâak  language as the primary means of expression for the Wampanoag Nation.Now we hope you will consider a different type of gift -- a special gift to WLRP made through your estate plans. Many think of estate planning as important -- but also as something that can be postponed. Working on your estate plans today can have many benefits, including peace of mind in knowing your wishes will be fulfilled. If you include a provision for WLRP in your plans, you will have the added satisfaction of knowing that generations of Wôpanâak  language speakers to come will benefit from your generous act right now.

Getting Started

​

Preparing your estate plans does not need to be cumbersome or complicated. Here are some steps to help you begin:

 

  • First, gather information about your assets, including retirement funds, bank accounts, and real property.

  • Second, think about the people and organizations that matter most to you and how you would like to provide for them.

  • Third, think about who you would like to serve as your executor or trustee.

  • Fourth, meet with a professional. If you do not have an attorney in mind, your local bar association can make a referral.
