To kick off National Make-a-Will Month, we want to introduce Dwight and Dorothy Humphrey. Dwight and Dorothy learned about ForKids at church many years ago and wanted to help children who had no home. Their modest monthly donations provided critical support during ForKids’ early days. When he died in 2000, we learned Dwight had named ForKids a beneficiary in his will. A year later, as ForKids was facing a fiscal crisis, a check arrived. “As I was taking the rein as Executive Director, state funding was dropping, and federal grants had increased requirements. I needed time to develop a fundraising infrastructure. The Humphreys gave me that time and it was nothing short of miraculous. Instead of shrinking, we grew.” Thaler McCormick, CEO of ForKids. Take care of the kids you have been helping at ForKids with planned giving: https://lnkd.in/eNtrfVEj. #nationalmakeawillmonth
