Our Values Aligned

Since Luther Burbank Center for the Arts opened in 1981, the organization has been committed to providing life-long education through the arts, presenting a variety of enriching arts experiences, and serving as a valued community resource. In return, the LBC has benefited greatly from thoughtful friends who've included the Center in their wills and other estate gifts while also advancing the values that have been most important in their lives. Regardless of the size of your gift, you too can provide funding to help support the mission of the LBC for years to come.

LBC is pleased to offer its friends free access to Giving Docs, an independent online platform that makes it simple to provide for the future of loved ones and those organizations you hold dear by leaving gifts through your will and other estate planning vehicles. With this easy-to-use platform, you can create a will or learn about other ways to make plans for the future in just a short time. And once you're done, you can revise or update your documents for free at any time. There’s no obligation and you are not required to leave a gift to LBC or any other organization in order to create a will. Get started today!

Frequently Asked Questions

Your Last Will and Testament is a formal document that specifies your wishes when you pass away. If you do not have a will, state law will determine how your belongings, children and pets are placed among your living family.

Giving Docs advises that a completed will is not legally binding until it has been signed and executed in accordance with the laws of your state of residence. Giving Docs will give you detailed instructions on how to do so in order to ensure that your will carries out your wishes. Giving Docs securely keeps your information in your profile so that you can quickly and easily update your will whenever you need to. The standard will document you create on the Giving Docs website incorporates typical estate planning needs. If you have a complicated estate with multiple properties and complex assets, or would like to discuss alternative planned giving vehicles, we recommend consulting an attorney and/or financial advisor.

This offer is free to you, compliments of Luther Burbank Center for the Arts.
