Donate Today to Keep PREPARE Free to the Public!

It is costly to keep our forms legal for US states and in many languages. Your help will allow us to continue to provide our programs and reach the people who need them most.

Every dollar helps maintain our online programs, easy-to-read legal advance directives, and provider and community tools. It also ensures our materials remain free for individual use.
