Leave a Legacy: Will Workshop

with Mabel Wadsworth Center co-founder Phil Worden, Esq.

WHEN? May 13, 2010 at 6 o’clock
WHERE? Mabel Wadsworth Center
WHO? Anyone who does not yet have a will

Anyone interested in seeing that her intentions after death are carried out should consider having a Last Will and Testament. Mabel Wadsworth Center is pleased to bring co-founder Phil Worden back for another Will Workshop. For just $50, Phil will walk us through all the steps and considerations; participants will leave with a notarized, legal will. What a deal! Preparation of your will can cost hundreds of dollars, and do-it-yourself kits may leave you with unanswered questions. Get professional advice for just $50! All proceeds from the Will Workshop benefit Mabel Wadsworth Women’s Health Center.

Participants are asked to pay $50 for the preparation of each will, payable to Mabel Wadsworth Center at the beginning of the Will Workshop on May 13th.

RSVP is required for all attendees. Please call (207) 947-5337, ext. 104 or email info@mabelwadsworth.org. You can also register online by clicking here.

condom conversations

Too often women are given conflicting information about sex and their bodies. The truth? It’s up to you to arm yourself with information (and a condom or two). And even though you may not have all the facts straight, you have a voice!

Take charge. With good information and the right attitude, we encourage you to have the condom conversation. Click here to read our condom conversation starters. Or, if you prefer to have a condom conversation brochure (complete with a FREE condom) mailed to you, email us today!
