VOLUNTEERS NEEDED FOR THE ESTATE PLANNING CLINIC
We are pleased and proud to remind you of a GAYLAW activity that is very important to our organization and to the community at large. Please consider renewing your past commitment to the program or joining our effort as a newcomer. It won't require much time, you'll be very well supported and you'll make a huge difference in someone's life.
On the second Tuesday evening of every month at 6:30 p.m. (see the schedule for 2008 below), GAYLAW volunteers meet with people living with HIV/AIDS at the Elizabeth Taylor Center of Whitman-Walker Clinic located at 14th & R Streets, N.W. to prepare simple planning documents (typically a Will, Advance Medical Directive and/or a Power of Attorney). No experience is required in estate planning or related areas. The documents you will prepare are uncomplicated and are designed for people with little, if any, property or income. A comprehensive AIDS Advocacy Training Manual, E-form documents and close mentoring by WWC staff will give you the necessary support. The time investment is very manageable - typically under 5 hours per client - but the impact you will make on the lives of those in need is tremendous.
The dates for 2008 are:
- May 13
- June 10
- July 8
- August 12
- September 9
- October 14
- November 11 (subject to change)
- December 9
Please complete the Volunteer Registration Form and forward it to Chester McPherson (chester@mcphersonatty.com ). Please indicate which month(s) you prefer to volunteer. If you have any questions, please call Chester 202-386-7690 or Caroline Ciuni at the WWC at 202-939-7651.
Looking forward to your participation in this very important program!
