Do you have a favorite charity?

Many of us support charitable causes during our life. Our charitable donations may include gifts to our church, our alma mater or our favorite cause. However, we often forget that we have an opportunity to make a charitable gift in our Will. Making one or more charitable gifts in a Will leaves a great legacy and clearly demonstrates your priorities to your friends and family. A charitable gift of any amount (even a few hundred dollars) can accomplish either of these goals. If you would like to make a charitable devise in your Will, consider consulting with the charity, as they may be able to provide helpful advice (in particular if you want to limit the scope of the gift in any manner).

Some of my favorite charities include:

Prince of Peace Catholic Church and School (http://www.princeofpeace-hoover.org/)

The Alabama War Dog Memorial Foundation (http://www.pawsandpatriotswalk.com/)

Hands On Birmingham (http://www.handsonbirmingham.org/)

Habitat for Humanity (http://www.habitatbirmingham.org/)
