Dear Friend, A thoughtfully planned estate provides peace of mind to you and your loved ones peace of mind. And in a year with so many considerations — from COVID-19 to a national election —  if you haven’t done so already, the time to start is now. We’re offering a special webinar on Wednesday, September 2 at 12 p.m. ET on Estate Planning Everyone Needs Now. Sign up to reserve your space and hear from tax and estate planning experts about updating your important documents in 2020 and using charitable trusts as a beneficiary of your Individual Retirement Account (IRA). The Foundation has also provided a number of resources to help you navigate this extraordinary period, meet your financial goals, and fulfill your legacy wishes to support MJFF's mission in finding a cure for Parkinson's disease. Also, read stories about real people contributing to research and more ways you can dedicate your legacy to The Michael J. Fox Foundation’s cause. Questions?
