The Written Gift (TWG) is a community-based non-profit in Alexandria area that works with community agencies, medical providers and community members to provide advanced health care planning support and we need your help to ensure completion of health care directives for all via free virtual health care planning services.
You might ask- "What’s an Advanced Care Planning and why now?"
Advance care planning involves learning about the types of decisions that might need to be made, considering those decisions ahead of time, and then letting know both family and healthcare providers about preferences. These preferences are often put into an advance directive, a legal document that goes into effect only if one is incapacitated and unable to speak for themselves. An advance directive also allows to express one’s values and desires related to end of life care.
TWG has been a vital organization that has ability to strengthen advance care planning even further while our communities tackle Covid-19 crisis and help understand medical as well as legal information bringing efficient community led health care system.
According to Honoring Choices MN-one in six Americans are caregivers for someone - an aging parent, an ill relative, or another loved one needing help. While Advance Care Planning cannot remove the stress and challenges associated with care giving, it can lessen some concerns. Hence at TWG we believe NOW is the excellent time to work on health care directives and strengthen our communities.
The Written Gift is a non-profit that depends on your help. Many more members of our community have an advance care plan thanks to the help of donors like you.
