Beyond The Basics: Bequests, Beneficiary Designations, and More May 26, 2026 3:00 PM - 4:00 PM ET Online We know that end-of-life and estate planning can be intimidating, but we are here to get you off to the right start. Do you ever find yourself asking, “How do I utilize my assets to best benefit myself, my heirs, and my philanthropic interests?” Luckily, we have the answers! Join Josh Roth, Director of Planned Giving for Compassion & Choices, and Bill Albrecht, Senior Consultant at Pathways Non-Profit Solutions, for another session that goes beyond simple bequests (though they’ll cover those, too!). They will discuss beneficiary designations, charitable remainder trusts/lead trusts, retained life estates, and more! Learn about benefits that you may never have known existed and gain the tools necessary to structure an estate plan that matches your personal priorities and values. There is no estate too simple or too complex; we are here to demystify the process for you!
