Personal Stories
Including the Foundation in your will or trust provides an opportunity to give a larger gift than you may be able to give out of your current assets. By leaving a gift to the Foundation, you can help fight blinding diseases today and in the future.
By leaving a lasting gift, you’re helping the Foundation while retaining the full use of your assets to provide for today’s needs.
