… if you do not have a living will

If you do not have a living will or trust, a few members have had success creating one through FreeWill.com.  The website is free to use, but the final document may require notarization and witness, which can be done at most local Banks.

The website is capable of creating a simple, but valid will for whatever state you reside in, and allows for the listing of non-profits such as The Chattooga Conservancy as a beneficiary of all or part of your estate.  All you will need are the Conservancy’s legal name, address, and EIN, identified below

Full Legal Name : The Chattooga Conservancy

EIN : 985-320-9518

Address : 867 Chattooga Ridge Rd Mountain Rest, SC 29664
