| For
more than 80 years, United Way of Summit County has been helping people in
need by giving them care, guidance and support that lasts far beyond the
need of the moment.
In partnership with the American Red Cross,
we go beyond emergency assistance to provide community programs that help
people get back on their feet and on with their lives. We encourage
independence, but most importantly, we revive the human spirit.
Gifts by Will are one of the most important
ways to contribute to the future of United Way. People need not be wealthy
to make a meaningful bequest to United Way. All bequests are greatly
appreciated and will be put to good use.
If you choose to designate United Way in
your Will, you and your attorney may find the following sample bequest
wording helpful.
"I give and bequeath to United Way
of Summit County, 90 North Prospect Street, Akron, Ohio, the sum of
__________dollars or ______% of my estate."
Please remember United Way in your
Will and let us know when you do.
For more information on bequests,
