YMCA HBB Partners with Willfora to Help You Plan for the Future—For Free

Making a Will might not be something you think about every day—but it's one of the most important things you can do to protect the people you love and leave a legacy that reflects your values.

To help you take this vital step, the YMCA of Hamilton | Burlington | Brantford has partnered with Willfora, a free online Will platform, to offer staff, members, and community members a simple and secure way to create or update a Will—at no cost.

“We know that estate planning can feel overwhelming or out of reach, but it doesn’t have to be,” says Joshua Austin, Director of Philanthropy at the YMCA. “This partnership with Willfora is about making it easier for people in our community to take that first, meaningful step in planning for their future and their family’s future.”

With Willfora, users can complete a legal Will online in less than 30 minutes from the comfort of their home. The platform walks you through the process step-by-step—no legal background required.

Creating a Will early ensures your wishes are clear, your loved ones are taken care of, and you can leave a lasting impact—not only on your family, but potentially on the causes and communities you care about.

This offer is available not just to YMCA staff and members, but to anyone looking for a place to start. Whether you're writing your first Will, updating an old one, or simply exploring your options, Willfora is an easy, secure, and cost-free tool that can help you build peace of mind.

By creating a Will, you also have the opportunity to reflect your values—whether by ensuring your children are cared for, your assets are distributed according to your wishes, or by leaving a gift in your Will to support a cause close to your heart.

A simple Will is just the beginning. It’s a foundational act of care and responsibility—and one that sets the stage for a more secure future for you, your loved ones, and your community.
