As a valued supporter of TDA Smiles Foundation, you’ve helped us improve access to dental care across Texas through education and community engagement. If you’re still looking to set your intentions for 2023, or just looking for an act of care to take for your family, I want to share an estate planning resource.
 
To kick off this new year, we're highlighting our partnership with FreeWill – a secure, online estate planning resource that allows you to plan for your future, protect your loved ones, and craft an estate plan that represents your values.
 
FreeWill’s tool guides you through each step of writing your estate plan in about 20 minutes, and it’s 100% cost-free to use!
