About Willfora 

Willfora’s mission is to help nonprofits make bolder long-term bets by getting visibility into future income. Willfora’s platform helps reduce the inertia that exists around creating Wills and increases mindshare with donors about the impact they can make with their Will by supporting causes important to them. Willfora makes it easy for nonprofits to secure new legacy gifts and maintain critical visibility into future gifts via real-time gift tracking and nonprofit insights dashboard.

Started in 2018 out of the Legal Innovation Zone, Canada’s top legal innovation center of excellence, Willfora’s mission is to help every Canadian protect their loved ones and support their favourite causes with free access to estate planning.

Willfora’s innovative digital platform has helped tens of thousands of Canadians create their Wills and power of attorney documents from the comfort of their home. Moreover, our platform has helped individuals support charities with nearly $50 million in legacy gifts confirmed in Wills.

How does Willfora use donor information?

Willfora employs bank-grade encryption between your donor’s browser and our servers so their data is secure while using the app. Our databases are encrypted at-rest and are not accessible directly from the open web.

We do not sell any data or contact information. All data collected on Willfora.com is housed in Canada, and none of that data is used for any purpose other than to notify partnered charities that gifts have been left to their organizations. 

If a donor supports a charity, they can also opt in to be connected with the charity to share their gift, so the charity can thank them and work to ensure the gift is honoured to the best of the donor’s intentions.

Donors also have the right to be forgotten, where they can email us to request that data be deleted from our servers if they no longer wish to use the service. If you want to read further, you can also see our privacy policy.
