Description: Description: This animated video introduces a character named Bill and his advisor with illustrated graphics to show how you can give to charity using life insurance.

Text: Ask an advisor” appears. The camera zooms out as the text lands in an outlined square. “How can I give to charity using life insurance?” fades in below. An illustration of a hand holding a heart appears on the right side of the frame.

Bill: I want to use some of my money to support charities that are important to me. How can I do that?

Description: Bill and his advisor sit opposite one another in a room setting.

Advisor: There are lots of ways to give, but one way to enhance your donation is with life insurance.

Description: Screen transitions to an illustration of a life insurance policy.

Advisor: Your donation is the life insurance policy.
