Joe and Anna have been faithful supporters of The Salvation Army - Cascade Division. They believe it is important to support and encourage their mission.
Joe: Several years ago, Anna and I decided to become part of the The Salvation Army - Cascade Division mission. We believe that they are truly helping others. We think that it is important to partner with them to make a difference. For that reason, Anna and I have made gifts over the years to help others.
Anna: We wanted to do more than to just make gifts. Joe and I have been careful over the years and have accumulated some resources. We plan to be generous with family, but we also have the ability to be generous with charity.
 After talking it over, we decided to leave a bequest in our will. Our attorney took the simple language available from The Salvation Army - Cascade Division and included a nice bequest. We are delighted that we will be helping others.
