An example

When George and Lucy got married, they created a will and included a $75,000 gift to the BMHS. As their family grew, George and Lucy revised their contribution to ensure their children's future financial security.

Meeting their attorney, they revised the gift language so that BMHS received a percentage of their estate instead of a specific amount. George and Lucy adjusted their plans to provide for both their children and the charity they love.
