Synopses & Reviews
Synopsis
Whether you are uber rich or drive for uber, you can make a difference in this life and the next. This is a baker's dozen of how people give away their dough. Becoming One of the Grateful Dead: Where there's a will, there's a way will help you answer the questions: What do I want my legacy to be? What do I want to leave my children other than money? How can I express my values through giving?
From the great granddaughter of a slave to a billionaire, from a 30-year-olds to an 83-year-old, people share one of our most taboo subjects: Our wills. Some stories are heart-warming, some are heart-breaking. Real life people, depicted with compassion, humour and warmth. You will never think about your estate plan the same way again.
After every chapter, there is a "Lessons learned" section for fundraisers and one for donors spelling out options on how to approach donors and how donors might approach giving.
