Dear Progressive reader
In an era marked by widening inequality, rising authoritarianism, and an ever-more urgent climate crisis, the choices we make—about how we live, and how we give—matter more than ever.
That’s why The Progressive is proud to participate in National Make-A-Will Month, an annual effort to confront the inequities of estate planning and empower people like you to take control of your future—and your legacy.
Did you know that nearly two-thirds of American adults don’t have an up-to-date will? For many, especially in underrepresented communities, access to estate planning remains out of reach. This only deepens generational disparities and silences too many voices that have helped shape our collective progress.
A will is more than a legal document—it’s a lasting expression of your values.
That’s why The Progressive has invested in a partnership with FreeWill, a free, secure, and easy-to-use estate planning tool. It allows you to:
* Safeguard the well-being of your loved ones
* Protect your hard-earned assets and express your wishes clearly
* Extend your vision for a more just and compassionate world
Make my will Today! ([link removed])
And if you’re able, we invite you to consider planning a gift to The Progressive in your will.
It won’t cost you anything today, but it will help ensure our hard-hitting, investigative journalism continues for generations to come. No matter the size, your gift helps us expose injustice, elevate underrepresented voices, and strengthen democracy.
Last August, more than 70,000 people used FreeWill to protect what matters most and create a legacy of impact—at no cost. This month, you can join them by securing your future and fueling progressive change.
Take twenty minutes today to leave a legacy rooted in equity, truth, and courage.
In solidarity,
