For many members of AMA, the love of model aviation started with family. It was sparked by a parent, grandparent, or mentor, cultivated through hours of conversation, bonding, and storytelling. For countless enthusiasts, this passion has been passed down from generation to generation.
September 22 is National Family Day, and this year, we at the AMA Foundation are celebrating family legacies by inviting you to take one powerful step to protect your own.
Flying model aircraft is a hobby that teaches focus, creativity, perseverance, and discovery. These are the kinds of values that we pass along to our children through the words we share and the choices that we make. One of the most important ways to pass along those values is through estate planning. By creating a will, you can:
- Ensure your loved ones are taken care of, providing guidance and peace and mind for your family during a challenging time
- Protect everything you love, from model aircraft collections to personal keepsakes
- Begin a lasting legacy with the causes you care about, like AMA
Get started on your free will today.
Our partner, FreeWill, offers a free, fast, and trusted tool that helps you create your legally valid will online. In just 20 minutes, you can begin or update your will, name guardians for children or pets, and make critical decisions for your assets and property.
We hope you take advantage of National Family Day to reflect on the values, traditions, and passions your family has passed down.
