Leave a lasting gift by including WOLA in your will. If you think a bequest to WOLA is a good option for you, please contact your attorney to update your will. Notify WOLA’s philanthropy staff when you’ve changed your will so that we can recognize you as a member of the WOLA Legacy Society and Partners’ Council.
