Everybody needs a will
Whether they are 18 or 108, everyone should have a will in place. People use wills to choose who gets their property, name guardians for minor children, provide a plan for pets and more.
Through a will, many people also choose to leave gifts of support to charitable organizations like the Alpha Chi Omega Foundation and make an impact on the causes they love for years to come.
