Wills for Heroes –
Protecting Those
Who Protect Us
An overview of basic estate planning
principles and everything you need to
know to be a Wills for Heroes volunteer
One of the founding affiliates of the Wills for Heroes Foundation,
Arizona’s Wills for Heroes program started in 2004 as a pro bono
opportunity to give back to those who risk their lives on a daily basis
in the name of public safety. This seminar will teach you the basics of
drafting wills, living wills, and health care and general durable powers
of attorney to enable you to be a volunteer at a Wills for Heroes event.
You will also become familiar with HotDocs by Capsoft, the software
program that powers Wills for Heroes. We hope you join us in participating in this groundbreaking, award-winning program that is now
active in more than 20 states. Last year in Arizona alone, Wills for
Heroes volunteers prepared more than 700 wills and donated more
than 2,300 pro bono hours to our first responder community. For
more information on the program and how to join our movement,

for Heroes program, please sign up our website.
