As you make the essential step to plan for the security of your loved ones and direct the future of your funds by beginning estate planning and creating or updating your will, you might also consider naming a charity or charities like the American Red Cross of Central Texas, so that your resources can continue to help others, while providing you an estate tax deduction.
