Bequest Notification

Often, when Compassion & Choices is included in a donor’s estate plans, we do not learn of that bequest until it is time to distribute the estate. That means we are unable to thank the donor and to recognize the donor’s generosity properly. If you have already included Compassion & Choices in your estate plans, please take a moment to let us know of your plans so that we are able to thank you properly now.
