“Our Legacy Giving Program organizes educational events that help Park County residents learn ways for them to take care of themselves, their family, and still leave a lasting legacy for your community. This workshop will provide some surprising information about when wills are or are not sufficient to take care of your affairs,” said Tricia Erikson, PCCF Philanthropy Director. “This is the second in a series of events that will offer information to residents about different ways to give that fit their circumstances.”
Coffee, tea, and pastries will be provided for attendees.
