Did you know that August is National Make-A-Will Month? It’s the perfect time to protect what matters most—and that includes your loved ones and the causes closest to your heart.

At Oahu SPCA, we’ve made it easier than ever to plan ahead and create a meaningful impact for animals in need. We’ve partnered with FreeWill.com so you can write your legal will for free—in just 20 minutes or less.

Why Create a Will?

Creating a will isn’t just for the wealthy or elderly—it’s an important step for everyone. A will allows you to:

  • Ensure your assets go to the people and causes you care about.

  • Name guardians for your children or pets.

  • Prevent family disputes and legal complications.

  • Leave a legacy that reflects your values.

It’s one of the most thoughtful, lasting gifts you can give your loved ones—and your community.

Leave a Legacy for Oahu’s Animals

When you create your will through FreeWill, you have the option to leave a legacy gift to Oahu SPCA. This costs nothing today, but has a powerful, lasting impact on our ability to rescue, heal, and rehome thousands of animals each year.

Even a small portion of your estate can ensure that vulnerable pets on Oahu will continue to receive shelter, medical care, and a second chance for years to come.

It’s Easy, Free, and Takes 20 Minutes

Whether you’re starting from scratch or updating an existing plan, FreeWill makes the process simple and secure. And if you prefer to work with an attorney, FreeWill can help you create a set of documented wishes to bring with you.
