Willful Partners with Rethink Breast Cancer for Breast Cancer Awareness Month

3 minute read
In this article:

    October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month and Willful is thrilled to be partnering with Rethink Breast Cancer to help tackle the stigma around end-of-life for planning. As a female-led company, Willful is proud to support Rethink’s work to impact those affected by breast cancer. For every will purchased in the month of October, Willful will be donating a portion of the proceeds to Rethink as our featured charity of the month.

    At Willful, empowerment is our passion. We believe young women should take control of their emergency and estate planning. Life is full of unexpected twists and while you can't always predict the future, you can at least begin to prepare


    As someone who has breast cancer in her family, I'm committed to helping Canadians prepare for the unexpected - regardless of their age. Also, as a co-founder of Willful, it's our mission to help empower all women to take charge of their emergency planning and build tools to help make these overwhelming tasks feel as simple and painless as possible.

    - Erin Bury, CEO & Co-founder
